The other two operators flying 700s for United are GoJet and Mesa. Once the remaining 700s are removed from United flying at SkyWest and the last of the E175s arrive for Republic, SkyWest, and Mesa, United will be scoped out on large RJs.
Ah I understand. All of the CRJ-700s and E175s are wifi equipped with the device streaming and new seating. All that money put into them I doubt they are going anywhere. SkyWest should be the primary operator of the CR7s in my opinion.
