Avantair

You seem to know a lot about someone whom you have never met.

It may be difficult for the netjets guys to get jobs with companies knowing that they will leave as soon as called back. Of course, lets hope no one gets laid off.

Unemployment

Buck,
I take it you believe when unemployment runs out you will be better able to get a job or go back to Netjets. I wouldn't bet on it!!
This economic climate may get worse or last a lot longer than you think.

She's at XO Jet.....that is a mistake they will regret. Nothing but a trail of crap left in her wake.

I think everyone at XO loves her. She just needs to know what is important to XOJET prior to negotiating the deals. Senior management has obviously made that clear to her here. In fact, when she negotiates with our preferred hotels, a senior line pilot works with her. There is no denying she is extremely good at her job, and she has only made our lives better and easier while saving the company a boatload of cash. Possibly her role was different or not as well defined at Avantair or Flight Options. It's not about finding the rock bottom lowest pice; it's about value and leveraging buying power. At XOJET, she saves us significant money, while improving QOL instead of diminishing it. But, I think it is a company culture thing, and I can see how her role might be different at other places.

Good luck with that ! ! !

Some of these Avantair pilots are quite vicious on those who are no longer with their company. There are MUCH greener pastures outside of Clearwater, FL.

You weren't there when she was. Trust me, she really screwed things up while she was floating around the hanger on her broom.

No, we are only vicious to you. "Greener pastures". And what planet have you been living on. Just to bring you up to speed...25,000(my estimate) pilots on the street no end in sight, commies in the white house, netjets parking airplanes. Greener pastures...only for a commie liberal hippie.

"Commies in the White House"?!?! As a veteran who defended us against the Commmies in the 80's in the USAF, I've got to speak up. Obama is just taking the drastic steps needed to fix what Bush spent 8 years screwing up. I'm neither Liberal nor Conservative, I'm "What's Best For My Country". The enhancements that are being made NEED to be made, or we're going to be in a pool of sh!t so deep we'll never wade out.

p.s. Just my opinion, of course :beer:

p.p.s Those changes seem to be working, BTW!
