2 330-200s coming soon

[Travelpro72]

Please be true !!!!! We are so wide-body deficient( Thanks Mr Colodny we didn't need the other 28 767s Piedmont had on order

Oh we are not deficient when it comes to "wide" bodies. Oh you meant widebody airplanes....my mistake. sorry couldn't resist. As for these airplanes, hell just convert some more 757's. throw a few seats in and send them on their way. After all that IS how this management does things right? Why change now? Hell deliver them in 2020. This place is a mess. Not to mention a complete JOKE. The orders coming should be widebody, widebody and more widebody. PERIOD ! ! ! !

NO CAN DO DEBBIE D O W N E R

The Beancounters in TEMPE are screaming for more A319s on TRANSCONS!!!!!!

 

[Travelpro72]

More 319's on transcon? You mean to tell me that this management team hasn't discovered that the E-190 can make it transcon with a stop in MCI?

Didn't you hear? They re switching the E190s out with 757s for the South America routes...

Looks like Filadelfia to Havana to Bogota

Be careful, DoUgIe will get Mesa to fly to Bogota wth the B-1900D's.

From what I hear...Mesa wants to pull out from unprofitable flying...

Bogota would be just a waste of planes according to JO...He wants these Beechs on routes like Phoenix and Las Vegas and Los Angeles...

Well my inside knowledge has us looking at a few 340s from an airline that is in the Caribbean.

I didn't think Mesa did any unprofitable flying, at least as an express carrier for a major. Don't they have "pay per departure" contracts where they get "cost plus" just for operating the airplane no matter if it's full or empty. This guarantees them a profit. Of course, that Hawaii flying is just theirs, I think. That may be draining the coffers.

Old news....they are, 2 I think, A340s from Air Jamaica but some very high ups in maintenance are urging Tempe not to buy them. They are some of the first A340-300s made and are basically junk now...at least that's what my crystal ball told me several weeks ago.

It was a joke 😉 Everyone knows Go! is JO's insurance for Mesa...UGH

 

[EMBFA]

Air Jamaica's A340s are to' up from the flo' up... they'll be perfect!

Flying junk? I just got off a 757 ETOPS. I think they'll fit in just fine.

What about the BWIA birds?

I had to call maintenance out to the 757 the other day. For the first time in recent memory, there were no MEL stickers on the logbook, so I had to assume they had fallen off.
