Mesa Air Group Announces MOU With United Airlines for Up to an
Additional 60 Regional Jets
Tuesday July 1, 8:02 am ET

# PHOENIX, July 1 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Mesa Air Group, Inc.
(Nasdaq: MESA - News) today announced it has signed a memorandum of
understanding with United Airlines to operate as a United Express
carrier, significantly expanding its current code share agreement with
United. Under the expanded agreement, Mesa will operate 35 regional jets
on select portions of the company's United Express service in addition
to the 10 Dash-8 aircraft already under contract. The 35 regional jets
include 20 larger 70-seat and 15 50-seat aircraft. United will also have
an option for an additional 25 regional jets, the timing and mix to be
determined at a later date. The expanded agreement is expected to be
effective in August 2003 and, unless extended, has a final expiration of
December 2013.

Aint many 70 seaters left. Skywest got 30, Mesa got 20 = only 25 left with ACA and ARW with no contract. This sucks.
 
Unf&*king believable!! UAL just don't learn do they. Got burnt by MESA a few years back and now they are back in bed with them. This is going to be interesting.
 
mesa is the most fast-spreading and lethal cancer. they're going to be everywhere, with their whoring fingers on everything.
not much to stop them, either.
 
Oh my god!!!!

ACA Terry like if the TA didn't pass we would be in such a better situation. Use your head for once.
 
Congratulations on those concessionary catch up contracts, guys. All that bountiful growth that it's bought you, isn't it fabulous? How does the carrot that management dangled taste, anyway? Hey, I've got some beachfront Arizona property y'all might be interested in.

Usually I try not be a total arsehole, but the Concessions of 2003 debacle must be remembered, it must go down in the history books, or we're bound to repeat it. Remember that drinking the kool-aid may not bring salvation. Let this abortion be burned into our memories.
 
The one thing I am curious about is "Starfish" - UAL's version of Delta's Song. If Starfish does not happen - and I haven't heard a lot about it lately - will the number of RJ's increase or remain static?
