ExpressJet to Resume Operations

Enviado há
 
ExpressJet Airlines says it will resume service “within the quarter” after the US Department of Transportation (DOT) granted the regional carrier permission to restart commercial operations under its own brand.

Used to love their service when they flew independently. Flew them regularly RDU>MSY. Flights were times perfectly for business, reasonable cost, and a hot meal!

i say "welcome back- i missed you"..I flew them Kansas City to Louisville frequently, and besides the nice crew members, i remember FOster's australian beer for $1 a can. I had several . Depending on routes, i expect to be a passenger again, and a beer drinker aloft once again.

They sold Fosters? Wow! I haven't seen that in, forever. Loved Aussie 'oil can' brew.

When I was in Australia, I asked for a Fosters. The bartender said, 'We don't have that piss here, we send it to America. We got 4X, and it'll do!' It was awesome. I've run into only one incident where XXXX Gold has been seen.

But I miss Fosters. I do NOT miss Vegemite. *BARF*

I flew Express Jet quite a few times to myself. Just get me to the destination, that's all I ask.

And, thank Ford for the real regionals: The ones that fly people from places no one has ever heard of, to places that everyone knows, so they can get to the rest of the world.

Small town air service is important, and now carries a danger in this pandemic era. *sigh*

Get vaccinated. Wear masks. Respect yourself by respecting others.

I have a feeling that ExpressJet will be going after alot of the college town airports as well as ESA routes... I'm hoping that maybe we'll even see them pick up routes out of BUF like ALB, PIT, or CVG

Let's not forget to thank Skywest for screwing over Expressjet by terminating the Delta contract early, selling the airline and then taking the aircraft and flying for itself.
