So they offer newer 50 seaters to ASA or Skywest giving 9e some CRJ700's. It's a big shuffle.
I'll take that swamp land in Florida. I'll trade you my ocean front property in Arizona for it.
haha. well, we're saying the same thing then. I mean, we have traded planes to other DCI carriers tons of times. There are CA tail numbers at ASA, EV ones at Skywest..what I'm saying is they can just trade them to another airline, dump the old ones, and get newer 76 seaters. What I don't understand is why this is tied to our TA at all.
