It is good. For the “lifers” and newhires. Still better at the majors. The guys what went to Kallita won’t look back and second guess.... 5 year lease (up to) on the CRJ’s is angood thing. I think the main issue is theis new “Entity” Looks to not be buying the aircraft themselves. I think long run thats not the best for the pilots. Case in point Republic/SkyWest model.. (they purchase most there aircraft) thats why in a ressesion they grew.. No major will shell out billions for aircraft for a regional in a ressesion.. The best thing to happen is XJT getting the E175. They can only grow from there. The E145 was/is a shrinking fleet..

CommutAir just announced a $45,000 new hire bonus on their Facebook page moments ago. (edit: It’s for captain qualified new hires)
United is starting to pump some serious money into their regionals. I wouldn’t be surprised if a similarly high bonus for XJT is announced soon.

Does anyone know the closing date on the ManaAir purchase?

ManaAir = United. CommutAir = United. United owns the E175’s going to ManaAir. Xjet’s CRJ200’s in ORD is a stop gap measure to retain the ASA pilots until the new ManaAir management team is put into place and figures things out. The CRJ200 lease is “up to” 5 years.
