I would think UAL has between 10/3/2009 and 2012 (the original expiration date) to make the decision and "announcement" about the Dash flying, but I'd expect since there has been no press release regarding the continuation of the CRJ flying that it has effectively been canceled.?.?
Heck, I don't know anything. Just my understanding of the scenario.
United's CRJ200s agreement ends in April. UA doesn't have to give notice for that. Only the dash 8s require 180s notice, starting from this month. The fact that they don't say anything is good for mesa.
