Mesa/Freedom will fight Delta

[erikgigem]

Does that include Freedom or are those Mesa's (YV), I couldn't find F8 on the DOT site

Just Mesa (YV)... Doing more research to find specifically Freedom's numbers..

Did Mesa lose their performance numbers while their CFO was eliminating more porn on their computers? According to DOT, Mesa reported the following for all their operations:

SEPT 07 82.8% ontime 1.72% Cancelled Flights
OCT 07 78.3% ontime 2.34% Cancelled Flights
NOV 07 76.8% ontime 2.85% Cancelled Flights
DEC 07 61.8% ontime 7.06% Cancelled Flights
JAN 08 68.8% ontime 6.50% Cancelled Flights

No more data beyond January 2008 exists on the DOT website.

Those are pathetic numbers, Mesa should fire their VP of Flight Ops.

It seems like JO only makes money in lawsuites, and looses money in lawsuites. He should have become a lawyer, not an Airline President. Oh, and he does not care for people, perfect lawyer attitude!!!

I'm guessing here that you are not an English major.

I am mostly talking out of my ass here, but I would imagine Delta cares mostly about controllable completion factor over on time percentage.

ASA has always had a mediocre on time percentage, but our completion factor has always been 99%+.

Bye Bye Mesa/Freedumb..... say "Hi" to JO...... Bouyyyyyyyy........

 

[spitfire1500]

It would be interesting to see what Mesa's paying out in legal fees right now. Nothing against the Pilots at mesa. How much of J.O.'s crap before the BOD pulls the plug on him?

Mesa has their own attorneys on staff and JO is the BOD...Mesa will have to go away for him to go away.

 

[Simon Says]

Nobody has picked up the real joke yet!!!!!! JO is getting a taste of what it feels like to be on the recieving end of disregarding contracts.

Plus, who really cares about this one.....it is Freedom. I still carry my list of original freedom scum.....

This is very true and why we sometimes fly almost empty flights hours late.....We get paid to complete the flights and that is the single most important measure....From an ASA standpoint, we are better off flying an empty flight both ways than cancelling it....

Not necessarily, from the ASA DCI agreement, 11.E.1.v.:

(v) ASA fails to maintain a completion rate of [***] with respect to the Delta Connection Flights during any [***] months during any consecutive [***] month period, unless Delta fails to maintain a completion rate of [***] with respect to its domestic mainline operations during the same [***] months as ASA’s failures during the same [***] period. For purposes of this Agreement, (a) Delta Connection Flights operated with no revenue passengers or completed over [***] hours late shall be considered as not completed and (b) Disproportionate ATL Cancellations shall be excluded from ASA’s completion rate calculation;
