Haven’t even thought about Alaska. I’m not sure how Horizon is currently doing, but just a year ago they were ****ting the bed hard and Alaska was trying to sack em. I’m sure YX could sell itself to them and that would give OO the direct competition that BB has been raving about constantly. Hot off the press, heard it here first on APC, YX is buying Horizon.....................
Yes it is a firm 100 planes from Embraer, but there is also an option for an additional 100 planes after the first 100 come. In the this agreement the option says they can also be E2s if the scope changes.
Also, remember we have gained 30 E-175s from Compass once Delta changed their agreement to us.
