ASA..pardon me...Atlantic Southeast KCLT Base

[777forever]

Now if the pilots come with whatever agreement Skywest Inc decides, are you ASA guys in favor of a relative seniority merge or a staple?

Most already have you on the ignore list.

But not you........................DUH!

Date of hire!

A little bird told me they'd buy assets then offer to hire folks in at the bottom.. And Mesa was but one of the carriers mentioned. Who knows? Maybe the "Big Announcement" will shed some light tomorrow.

ALPA merger rules would govern this. Don't get excited, it could be your job next.

How does CLT fit into the scheme for ASA?

Charlotte is a 900 base for USAirways. ASA would fly these aircraft, under the USAirways Express Banner. Doug Parker burned all the furniture to keep USAirways going through the winter, they need cash, and Mesa's death just gave Doug Parker a winning lottery ticket. RJ flying has opened up there, and it will go to the highest bidder..............

ASA would literally have to fly at a loss.... Sounds like a good business model... Plus Airways if any of you knew ANYTHING about scope and USAPAs case on too many large RJ's you would know NOTHING is going to happen..... Seriously how about the 1000 plus Mesa pilots without a job? Grow up....

Negative. We'll just loan Airways $100 million at 12% interest and they'll agree to a rate that gives us a decent profit. Cash rules everything, especially when ya got $700 million. Ask United

I guarantee you I've got a whole lot more info and better intell on what the deal at USAirways is than you do..........................Trust me.

ASA is not buying anything, they are owned by skywest. Thats why these rumors are so rediculous.

You are correct. I am however going to ignore the spelling, play devil's advocate and suggest that Skwest Inc may start throwing some more cash around for ASA.

 

[LazyLightnin']

Who's going to bid for it? Think it will go senior?

You do realize there won't be any public announcement tomorrow, yes?

With respect to Trip7, I couldn't agree more!

On a side note is anyone actually going to the festivities at A-Tech tomorrow?

 

[at7driver]

heard on the bus that ASA is paying google ONE MILLION DOLLARS.... to put the new "logo" up for a day.. so the entire world will see we are NOT ASA anymore.

Again your ignorance is showing. Airways with the E190s going to RAH has now paid RAH in full. They in the last quarter actually took on more unrestricted cash, the good stuff incase you did not know, and are thinking they are doing just fine with the cash stand point. Right now Airways needs no money. More over YOU have no cash. Skywest Inc has a crap load in which it already had before ASA.....

However again you, whom has zero knowledge of the Airways system, have absolutely no clue what happens..... You barely know a little about DAL and my guess is even less about UAL..... But you are right, PSA, AWAC (whom airways would be most likely to give flying to if it were a contract carrier), 9E, ASA, Skywest are all going to gain 900's for USairways. They are going to park all their A330s, A321s, A320s, B757, B767, and E190s and become a stricly RJ/E175 fleet.... And RAH is going to fly the big bad E190 across the pond to Europe to keep the Europeans happy.... (makes about as much sense as you fools overly excited about Mesa pilots, whom are ALPA, going to the street).

Oh yes... I will trust a screen name of JumpersAway off of Flight Info.... Who do you even work for again? ASA? I'll get right on trusting information off of our lovely aviation forums.....

All you're doing is annoying everybody more than you usually do. CLT doesn't even make sense. Skywest will only give us just enough to meet our delta margins.

I disagree completely. Our cost will only decrease if we grow. We won't be a United/Delta only carrier for much longer.
