Don't doubt the current MEC is not nearly as JO friendly as the last one, however if JO needs to low ball the price for US and thinks concessions are the way to get it, he could motion to throw out the contract in BK court.

Not saying the pilot group would support or like that move or talk of concessions, but JO does have the option of making a 'smooth' bankruptcy turn ugly fast.




Time will tell I will say, however if their CBA was assumed, can they go back and go after labor?

JO does not control anything, the creditors commitee does.

Correct on the creditors commitee

Correct the creditors committee is in control and they have NOT assumed the contract. There has been absolutely no indication of any interest in doing so. I do not expect it will happen.
 
When the Majors went BK they screwed labor/hotels...
Now Mesa screwed GE/Raytheon/Embrarer etc...They are stuck with the 700/900's till the leases are up in which case someone else will get them. Ending Mesa.


I don't know what history you are reading but the largest creditors in all bankruptcies have been GE and the lessors. Labor and hotels were not material creditors at all.

Is ALPA in the creditors committee? just wondering.

BTW how is the relationship between the new MEC and JO?

Yes ALPA is in the creditors committee.

Heard the new MEC doesn't have as good of a relationship with company as the previous one.
 
Hahahahaha.

We'll see how safe Mesa is with UAL/CAL and how much XJT is in danger here in a few months. I'll enjoy watching you stroke Mesa until then.........might want to recheck your XJT highest cost bullcrap statement. UAL loves Mesa so much they don't want them anymore.


Quiz...... If Expressjet isn't the highest cost regional (with the lowest profit) what regional has higher costs? Expressjet is an insolvent company that hasn't realized it yet? BTW what has the new CEO said in the last two months? anything?
 
By the way... The Greek MEC chairman seems like an idiot. Management will not even meet with him and he is going backwards. Bring KW back.

His problem is approaching the company with both guns blazing.That is not how you negotiate. I wouldn't talk to him either with that mentality..

Given Mesa's contract history he is going to be better than the 2003 and 2008 "gave away the farm" teams.

I hope he gets hired by our company.
