LOL I think its safe to say that the 1st of many 175's beyond the "original 25" will be delivered April 22nd. Im pretty sure these people at United like their money... and I believe there is a staffing plan coming, everything happens in baby steps or incrementally
Is that the kookaid they are serving up down in Houston?? So United is just going to simply do away the 175 with every other regional because they “heavily” invested in XJT? United has proven to be a carrier that cares simply for keeping their regional network diversified so it’s a constant battle for the lowest bidding...Ever wonder why Mesa is still around with their awful reliability? United spent the price of one narrow body jet on XJT which is hardly an Investment on their part. You are sounding like some of the Comair guys that thought Delta was going to make them their preferred regional. And remember what happened to them?
