Continue through 2017? Last bit of information I got, and that was directly from K.H., was that if ZW was going to continue to fly for US/AA past 2015 it would be in a reduced role and the remaining operation would most likely go from CLT, DCA & PHL to ORD, after all the adjustments are made to the regional side. Their performance has been horrible, although it has improved a bit over the past few months, its still not where it needs to be when it comes to on-time performance and the daily maintenance issues are out of control. They are a top feeder only because of the amount of flights that they are scheduled to fly but watch how that drops as soon as more 900's and 175's come on-line. They got to keep the flying in-house with the wholly owned operators and stop giving it to the Mesa's, Trans States, Air Wisconsin's and others who keep ruining the US/AA name. Bailed US out twice? I only remember the 125mil that they put on the table to help US and to secure flying after UA kicked them to the curb as they really had no other option.
