In an effort to look post-SLI and final merger, some questions for my AAI cousins as well as your thoughts on the topics of Caribbean/Mexico operations.
Since SWA hopes to dovetail and take advantage of your operations there, some basic questions?
1. Describe the amount of flying (# of flights, if everything is a turn, # of ovrnights, etc) done to Caribbean and Mexico?
2. What is the avg turn time? Do you experience delays?
3. Where do most of the flight originate from, MCO, ATL, other cities?
4. Are the employees there contract or AAI employees?
5. What is being done right/wrong in those operations that you think SWA could learn from?
6. What size equipment are on most of the flights? Should changes occur to this match up?
7. Seasonality changes...what are they and are they affective?
8. Non-revenue likelihood on those flights?
9. Which destinations require ETOP aircraft and which ones don't?
Any other observations and thoughts to share publicly for the SWA guys to learn from. Thanks.
