Growth was NEVER promised to ASA in exchange for PBS. Just a superior bidding process with better control of your schedule.
You must have heard a different sales pitch. I heard. "We will have to grow because the company can't save a dime on PBS without growth". That statement is a lie but it was said over and over. The company can shrink through attrition and it will have the same effect.
I mentioned that at the first roadshow but they said. "oh that won't happen were is the attrition going to come from". How many people have left in the last year compared to how many we have hired?
 
Wait, how do you guys know exactly where the airplanes are coming from? This isn't in the news article?
These were the last batch of (-700's) airplanes (CA's) we received before we got the QX ones. The CA planes lease/contract is coming due so these are the 8 to leave the fleet, along with the 4 from Skywest (same batch) 12 total.
 
Anger over GoJets is really directed at the wrong group. It isn't the GoJet pilots who are responsible for this. It is ALPA and greedy management. But ALPA is a big player that deserves the blame for a lot of this. Hulas Koolaid-nas and his management cronies did try to see if ALPA could come up with something agreeable for the bigger RJs. ALPA, overconfident and flexing their muslces, tried to play a game of hardball and it failed. It also bit them in the a$$. GoJets is actually a by-product of an ALPA failure. And, in one of life's little ironies, became the same place that ALPA sanctioned to send its furloughed pilots from United.
