They will need a feeder that can support nation-wide operations for the smaller 50-seat market.
I think that will be XJT. Certainly Whiskey nor Commutair could fill this role. Honestly, and no offense to commutair - but you think United will put all of its chips on the 50-seat market to either of those companies?
You're forgetting that Skywest already operates over half of all the 50 seat regional flying that UAL contracts. They are getting more of those 50 seaters back as the come off of Delta service. They (Skywest) already operate over 180 CRJs for UAL.
