So now that United retains half of every dollar of profit from ExpressJet, doesn't it make sense to move as much flying to ExpressJet as possible? Thoughts?

Until we can properly staff the operation, it doesn’t matter.

What he said^ That will never happen until they admit they need a flow or something extremely close to it. The CPP won't cut it. Period.

United will sit on their hands as long as possible before doing anything earth shattering.

It's a catch 22, people won't come here until the upgrades are down to 2-3 yrs and the upgrades won't happen until people start flowing in. This place is behind the power curve in a bad way. Bringing some overpaid consultant in from Virgin won't fix that. Pilots DO NOT CARE about lipstick on a pig. They only want results.

Money, flow, or a combination of the two. The current contract won't make it happen. Not even close.

Except UA owns art of other regionals..??.. so how do you suppose they handle that theory with them???

C5 yes, who else?

Republic..... filler.

Email today said regional flying would be coming back and be done by it’s wholly owened companies. It said specifically we are the launch of what will be newly consolidated regional feed. More details to come....

Ownership in Republic by UAL is very small.

For those of us who didn’t get the referenced email, any ideas what does this mean for UA-branded flying at non-wholly owned regionals (OO, YV, etc.)?

Yeah. What email are u referencing? I don’t remember this email
