Republic won’t see any more Ejet flying with United. I am not sure that Mesa will either.
That logic doesn't make any sense.
Why would American give out 175 flying to Compass when they own a regional that flies 175s?
Or Delta giving CRJ flying to SkyWest when they own a regional that flies CRJs?
And no, United did NOT _promise_ next 25 175's to SkyWest.
