That's not helping anyone's trust level. But... Supposedly more "good news" coming next week to keep that "momentum" building...
Bets on what the news will be?
Excercising the options?
Taking back planes from Expressjet? TSA? Compass?
Something relating to Reublic's recent bankruptcy filing?
300 upgrayyyyyyyydes?!?!?!
Well, I read that blast from the MEC and DFW reps and the "cautious optimism" phrase is one used umpteen times before only to.....as some say, result in being "underwhelmed". I have heard a rumor of another order of E-175's for Envoy (actually 40 again), so perhaps there might be something good this time. It would make sense as Envoy is slated to be essentially an E-jet airline. I wouldn't necessarily be growth, per se though. More importantly, should that occur it WOULD have the potential to improve schedules as it would bring back more mid-day flying.
But, that was before the RAH BK and although if true, I don't think that would alter another batch of E-jets for Envoy, but now Parker & Co. are no doubt mulling over their options regarding RAH and there are several potential options which may or may not add a new equation to AA feed.
