To elaborate, the Delta Connection Senior Vice President is now the Endeavor CEO as of about 2 months ago and has not been quiet in saying 3 regionals while growing Endeavor from 30% of the DC feed to 45%. Adding GoJet and Compass’ airplanes to Endeavor (possibly converting 700s to 175SCs) would get them there, and we’re already starting to see overlap with Skywest moving into LGA in May.
I’d be cautious about going to a regional that only flies 10% of the DC feed, be it GoJet or Compass. It’s very risky as Delta will just transfer the planes, not the pilots. Just like they did at ASA.
