They are still taking delivery of the 12 total 700's from ASA/Skywest. I believe they still have 3-4 more to take delivery of/place on line. Nothing earth shattering.
Why exactly do people look for trouble? It's summer. Go outside and find something to do!

I'm certain it's not a flow agreement. It was simply preferential hiring.

It was part of the Jets-for-Jobs program that was reincarnated from the furloughs in 2002. I think there were 30-40 UAL furloughs at gojet that took jobs at CAL when they became available.

You are referring to "jets for jobs," right?

The IBTL posts are hilarious...

Seriously though, all 12 Delta planes are already on property and staffed. There are only a few UAL guys still around.. most have already returned. 20% in 2 months is very suspicious.

They need people for the ATP requirements. If the FAA starts enforcing the "good moral character" part, they'll only have maybe 2-3 pilots total.

I think Mesa might be losing some United CRJ-700 airframes soon. Maybe around 4-5 jets...

Maybe United decided not to renew with Mesa and wants GoJet to fly those planes?

It's probably too early for Delta to give GoJet more planes since they just started operating as a DCI carrier and Delta probably wants to see how GoJet does with the current DCI planes before adding more...

We all know GoJet has the lowest costs, so it's no surprise to hear rumors about them possibly picking up more contracts.

My company announced this month something like six lines of flying out of LGA for July. I assumed this was to cover GoJet flying they couldn't staff. If that's the case and other carriers are covering some too, then their staffing increase makes sense.
