Couple that with the fact that I'd imagine they're going to be looking to wind down that 20 AA CR7 fleet at ASA quickly, they'll need to bring that onboard OO.

Easiest way to bring a 175 program on at 9E? Don't transfer all 22 G7 700's. Give us a total fleet of 10-15 CR7's, let GoJet operate the remainder for a short term, and go buy 10 175SC's to start the fleet with at 9E. Then once that's up, you can transfer the CPZ 175's over.
If OO gets new 175's, they'll have to be 69 or 70 seat and they'd probably have to park the 700s with EV tails.
