So you can provide the same quality of lift to them as you have for Delta? You can't staff your aircraft already, how is it you will magically be able to now.
United does not need to suddenly want them, they have already negotiated a CPA for 55 airplanes worth of lift.
Republic canceled orders for 25 of those aircraft.
That means republic needs to find 25 aircraft to successfully fly that CPA.
There are roughly 20 aircraft painted in delta colors currently. Moving them over to the United side brings aircraft that are already staffed in to fill the void of those 25 aircraft.
Staffing is already turning around, a person who interviews today wouldn't be able to get a class date until mid to late February, the classes are all full.
