SKYW has no cash left after this deal. Where they gonna come up with more money for another transaction. DAL will file CH11 in a few months. UAL will continue to flounder around until they are close to CH7. SKYW will have to renegotiate contracts for both carriers and probably share some of the risk of fuel. They will be left with no cash for a rainy day and will themselves be run close to CH11 because of no available cash. The only regional that is just hanging out watching all of this unfold while stashing cash is XJT. XJT will watch them all get backed into a corner and then buy them all at a discount. XJT-MESA-SKYW-CHQ will all be one airline and XJT will rule the world!!!

One of the things I read on the transition part of the site said that Skywest will still have over $400 mil left after this transaction.
 
i'm sure that skywest can finance a lot of deals right now with their credit rating. It makes sense considering there are so many deals out there. They can borrow money from the bank and as long as their profit margin is greater than the money they have to pay the bank, it is all gravy.

I love how you think. This will happen mark his words.

And the fun part would be the list merger--- Mesa and XJT being the only 2 alpa carriers would be subject to the ALPA merger policy while CHQ and SkywestSide would be on the recieving end on a stapler.
 
i can add another fun rumor as to what skywest might be up to.....

buddy of mine told me that a couple of skywest people were getting a tour of the great lakes headquarters in cys......could be interesting if its true...but i doubt it....

Actually, SkyWest left 50 CRJ200s on Delta's books so that should there be a sudden downturn in regional jet flying those airplanes instantly become Delta's problem. FlyI needs to get those Airbus products on the property for their survival and to be attractive to buyers.

Delta could drop those leases in court. Gone.


Bye Bye--General Lee
 
Ah, Generalisimo, you are back. Now you can tell us how much you are hoping to see Comair go down!
 
Exactly! SkyWest gets to earn interest on that $125 million for the next four years before Delta gets it IF they don't go chapter 11. Right now we are only out the $330 million. This and the fact 40+ RJ's stay on Delta's books was a pretty smart move by Mr. Atkin.
