I don't think Fabregas and the rest of the clowns in management have a leg to stand on when they're crowing about record quarterly profits.
Clarification... Mr Fabregas has nothing to do with their contract with AA. AA has a ACMI contract with MQ to operate under certain provisions. In order to hand over the other flying, AA told MQ this would be your new rates (which would be needed by having a concessionary contract). Mr Fabregas is just the middleman in this, handing over the details of the deal imposed by AA management to the relevant work groups.
AA, to clarify the arrangement, has had MQ move its headquarters from AA HDQ's floor 4 to Irving north of DFW airport.
