You are about to see a new United Express brand built around XJT and C5. Remember, United now makes 50 cents on the dollar at XJT. How can another airline bid for a contract and win against XJT? They can't. Why do you think that part of the sale SkyWest negotiated protection of their United flying? For this exact reason.
Yet still people are willing to sit and wait around for a Q4 class date at Republic. It's like people don't believe what's happening at XJT.
