JETGO Airlines to launch Brisbane-Karratha-Singapore services
Also there's one in BNE, but I haven't seen that one personally.
Even with written agreements many pilots moved on to bigger and better within months of completing training - within weeks of passing the training CV's were updated to the airlines, so that seems no intent of compliance with the agreement in writing or not was ever intended.

It would single % numbers of pilots that would not jump ship for Qantas or Virgin at 6 months or even under 24 months, if type rating was paid by a company. That's what got this experiment started - airline feeders not getting a return on an "investment".

One parked up minus engines in Cairns, one parked up minus engines in Brisbane and one parked up with engines in Brisbane over near 14/32 that hasn’t moved for weeks. Have seen all three today.
This is 100% on the money. Pilots are their own worst enemy in this regard. The demise of "handshake agreements" because nobody honours them anymore. If everyone out there had a little bit more integrity then perhaps we wouldn't be subject to salary sacrificing ratings or being sent offshore without pay.

Can they even justify a sole E190? You have major carriers with large scale such as JetBlue and Virgin who have been very vocal about the Embrear, they are incredibly expensive to fix when broken, cost a lot to operate compared to the 737 or A319 and they have either dumped it or in the process of getting rid of it.
Engineering costs to fix one could potentially sink the entire company should one brakedown. This played a large part in Air Australia’s collapse. Small Fleet and extreme maintenance bills. The revenue just wasn’t there to pay for it all.

My information differs from yours markedly. Virgin decided to remove the Embraer not because of "brakedown" sic issues but because they wanted to reduce the number of aircraft types that they operate. The people I know that flew them said they were good aircraft to operate and pax liked them. In what way do they cost more to operate than a 737 or 319? Given less seats their costs may be higher per RSK but their capital cost is also half of the other types.
You mention two carriers "dumping" the type, so worldwide not really a significant number.
A one aircraft fleet is difficult to sustain admittedly but without seeing the business plan, who knows.
E190 capital costs are not half of 737, in fact they're quite close, per seat they are higher. Fewer lessors deal with regional aircraft, and that reduction in competition adds further to cost structures. Boeing and Airbus offer deep discounts with vastly higher production rates and economies of scale that EMB and Bombardier can only dream of (unless/until they fall under Boeing/Airbus umbrella).
The engine maintenance costs of the E-Jet series has often been publicly cited as a problem by Jetblue, VA and others. The E2 may be a serious weapon in the near future, sharing engine technology with the CSeries and A320neo.

Difficult to get accurate pricing and as you say no one pays list price due to discounting but I understand an E190 is around $48 million and. 737 around $90 million. True that the leasing pool is much smaller for regional jets but there are plenty of airlines adding Embraer's product to their fleet.
Ultimately it does not matter what your seat cost is so long as you can charge enough to cover it and if you have a monopoly route there is less pressure to discount. Whether there are enough to people who want to travel KTA SIN or BNE KTA is much more of an issue than the type of aircraft they plan to use I believe.

agree with Icarus, JetGo have much bigger problems, like filling the aircraft. Noting Silkair are "trialling" 4 Broome flights from SIN, started yesterday and IF there is demand they might make it a regular service. Broome has at least something to market to get people in from Singapore. It's extremely difficult to see how JetGo will even half fill an E190 both ways just relying on KTA pax going on holidays or the business market.
