That is true, but what is Gojet going to do with those 900s if they completely lose Delta connection flying? Who wants to own an aircraft type you can't fly. Unless they convert them to CRJ550XLRs for UA Express😉. Even if they did that or hung onto those Crj900s for some reason there still would be 7 large RJ to replace for Delta connection flying under Deltas scope. Sure its possible it could be replaced with new ERJ175s, but if Delta decides they want 9E to continue that flying I'm sure it will be with CRJ900s. If that's the case and Gojet dont give up their 900s I'm sure Delta could find used CRJ900s somewhere on this planet or at a big stretch order new ones. I guess they could order 7 new E175s for Skywest and swap them out with their CRJ900s and send those aircraft 9Es way.
Who knows it's the wonderful world of regional flying. Hang on to your "Hats"😄
