Default Surprise, Surprise... Big Sky leaving more cities

Pocatello, Walla Walla, and Jackson Hole GONE as of March 21st

Couldn't see this one coming at all... Boise domicile opened and gone 1 year and 2 months later. What's next to fall, Billings???

seems like you might be onto something Nick when you said how mgmt. was trying to turn Big Sky into a Northeast operation. I am still a little stumped as to why a company picks up and leaves places they are making money? Seems like a quality business practice to me.

I bet Russ M is pi**ed. The BOI crews deserve better than to take it from Fred like that.

Haven't talked to him but I can imagine... for sure he'll be able to sell his house in 10 days no problem! Just a frustrating all around deal for everyone... mechanics, agents... Just can't believe I was foolish enough in the first place to think this might work... here's yer sign!(or should I say, here's my sign)

Atleast we got 17 days notice this time vs. 14 last time!

Sorry to hear . . . This type of behavior follows your CEO around. Fred has done this for every airline he has worked for. What will be very intereting is when he cannot get the pilots he needs, because the current staff will finally decide to move on to bigger and better things.
