For Delta your going to be glad we aren't in those junky 175's

I may have the year wrong though. But in any case they terminated it early. Delta wants more 2 class aircraft. And they want them to have a forward lav for their high value passengers, which the 700 does not. I agree that it would've been nice to see those planes come to Endeavor. But Delta favors those who can finance the aircraft

In 5 years more than half our pilots will have moved on.
The MRJ, 175#2, revamped crj900's will all be available.
Let's see if the TA has most of what we want minus a flow
That's tomorrow not 5years
