Skywest/ExpressJet plan

[Mickey Mouse]

Relax, guys and gals. Let's remember something very important. This TA vote was not about the XJT pilot group holding out for more. It was about the XJT pilot group merely holding-on to what it has. If SKYW is that broke and in such a weak competitive position, then this TA would not have saved them. Also, let's not forget that the Skywest Airlines pilot group is more expensive to operate, according to last quarters financial report. Their flying contracts are just more lucrative than XJT's. Therefore, any future flying awards would cost more to operate if Skywest pilots are doing it. Unless of course they take more concessions. It's all up in the air, but it has been that way for the last 6 years; just ask all the XJT pilots who were furloughed or displaced over that time. Stop running around and yelling "the sky is falling!" It has been falling for a while.

If they can't make money paying what they do now, then they need to shut up shop. End of story. The reality is that my pay and work rules are not the reason for their poor financial results. Gross mismanagement and ineptitude are the reasons. That's where the fix lies.

New flying should go to XJT. We are less expensive to operate. Granted, SKYW did inherit all the crappy contracts from LXJT and also some from LASA when it bought both of them, but they would be wise to award new flying to XJT because we cost less to operate. It's all in the financial report. Toward the bottom, it breaks down costs per airline.

XJT does 2200 flights per day. Skywest Airlines does 1700 flights per day. XJT does 500 more flights per day than Skywest Airlines and still costs less to operate.

Nine months ending September, 2013 was even better

Don't larger RJ's get paid a premium and don't we have a mostly 50 seat fleet?

Skywest didn't inherit anything. Both the DAL and CAL contracts were negotiated by Inc. They were the ones who did that!

 

[Mickey Mouse]

Can anyone share the 70 seat rates that LXJT negotiated with the company last year? I have never seen what they officially agreed to. I know this was outside of the ASA MECs control.

Far from negotiated. They were arbitrated rates. We of course, had no say or input. They're pretty easy to remember.....
