UA invested in C5 because they wanted to save their 145 flying as SKYW was winding down XJT. Once it became clear that C5 couldn’t pull it off they had to buy XJT to rescue the 50 seat feed and to have some BATNA in future negotiations with other regionals.
That is all a non issue. I would assume they will keep whatever 50 seat flying they end up keeping with XJT but there is no need to consolidate anything.

It should be interesting to watch how this plays out. Why do you assume that 50 seat flying will stay with XJT instead of keeping the 50 seat flying that is currently being flown by SkyWest? Both companies seem to do a good job. I’d agree that there is no need to consolidate. There will be casualties on the regional side as the 50 seat fleet is reduced, just as there will be on the legacy side as the 756 suffers the same fate.

If we are talking about possible future scenaros post Covid19, I would see only XJT and C5 as the 50 seat operators for United.
Chicago and Denver would go to XJT and EWR/IAD to C5. XJT had it's focus shifted West with the demise of TSA and I can't see that changing. I also can't see anything bigger than a 50 seater for most of the flying outa EWR and IAD.
The fact that United have ownership stakes in both these operators also plays a major part in this theory.

exactly what I’ve been trying to say. XJT will survive. Not saying they will be flying 50 seaters, but they will be flying something.
