ExpressJet Posts 31.7 Million dollar Q4 LOSS!!!

Flew on ExpressJet for the first time the other evening. Was not impressed. Very cranky FA, and the seats in front of me and the one to my side rattled and squeaked like crazy on every little bump. I've also never heard so many large power changes on an approach in my life. Overall - a very noisy aircraft from a pax perspective.

It is an incredibly noisy aircraft, there's no doubt about that. I've also found myself playing the thing like a trombone in some conditions.

Was this a branded flight or one of the Delta/CoEx flights?

It was a CoEx flight I believe - Dallas to Houston. Conditions were pretty benign, not sure why the huge power changes. I was also in 17A which I'm sure didn't help with the noise. It left the impression that the 145 is a very thin skinned machine with no sound dampening. Dunno, it got me to where I wanted to go...........
 
I rode on an ExpressJet Delta flight (SEA-LAX) about a month ago. Overall a great experience. The jet is a little small on the inside, although I did enjoy the 1-2 seating configuration. My only real complaint is that the wind noise did seem unusually loud. We got there on time and with a smile to boot.

It is just an incredibly loud airplane.

I don't even know how people can hear the XM radio without earplugs. I couldn't hear much without it cranked all the way up when I tried it without earplugs.

I watched my dad put up the good fight all the way until Eastern Airlines was no more. I sincerely wish all of you the best.
