Man, some of you guys just can't see the forest from the trees! They have the final say, and have to approve any potential buy out/merger etc.

Unless, skywest is willing to operate the Coex side at a potential loss, the rates we're giving CAL cannot get any cheaper, not to metion the fact that CAL already expressed interest in reducing it's regional jet feed...oh and did I forget scope? All of you guys excited about the prospect of flying your "big" regional jets for CAL, yeah well that one's not going to happen either, maybe post merger with United...this is where the plot thickens.

I'm telling you guys this is about 100 options with Embraer, and the possibility to expand, the question is: Is skywest willing to pay premium for it?
