Anyone Hear JA Talking In The ATL Lounge?

[ASAFOE120]

JA was in the lounge in ATL yesterday (11/1). Can anyone fill us in on his comments? I only caught a little of it.

All I caught was:

• 17 more 900's (all to Skyw)
• Skyw will fly thru ATL but no plans for a base there (yet)
• ASA marginally competitive on the 200 and not competitive at all on the 700 (as compared to Mesa, Chq, Skyw)
• Admitted that Skyw's profit sharing plan slightly better than the one offered to ASA.
• No plans to shrink ASA out of existence

He was grilled pretty good by a couple of ALPA guys while I was there.
Anyone have any more info?

I respect him for coming down to give some face time, but he's not going to give any real information. We'll only be given what he wants us to hear and what the SEC will allow. Too bad, we could use some good news.

Remember this one: "No plans to close SLC."

 

[Ganja60Heavy]

this one, too..."No plans to shrink ASA out of existence"

How about "C concourse renovated by 2006, we know you have been told this many times!"

How about "getting this thing wrapped up now!"

How about "the best paid regional pilots in the industry!"

How about "we know there is a staffin' problem on the ramp and we are woking on it."

How about "we will resign if the deal isn't done in 90 days!"

How about "I didn't have sex with that woman!"

How about "go to school, study, or you'll end up in Iraq."

The list goes on and on.

Shrink us out of existense?

Did he say just how much he plans to shrink us? Down to just an LAX base?


Do you guys not ask questions???? Was there no one there?
