The smaller regionals like AWI, commute air and maybe go-jet? Aren't likely to make it. I believe its because they are small and it requires to much accounting and resources on UA's behalf. XJet easily has the planes and staffing to take over whatever flying those guys currently have.
Plus UA bought all those 145's from trans states and at this point, its either fly them or take a loss. Probably better to just keep them going.
Whatever furlough's the company is prepping for will probably be short lived or not at all.
One things for sure come October 1st the airline industry is gonna be a replay of the movie "300".
I love the fact that people give their opinions and have no clue whats going on. All of the 145's that are operated by UA were all bought by Continental and transferred to UA when they merged. They have a ton of 135/145's in the desert that are paid for as well. The TSA, XJT and C5 145's were all UA birds and they can move them freely to whoever they want to.
