Displacements require 60 days

Would you like to make a small bet? I say the odds are less than 1%.

In Bozo's defense, he was referencing ERJ hiring, not CRJ

The update didn't mention where the planes will be based. DAL has shown it doesn't like one regional controlling all the flying in a base so as an ATL based guy I fear Pinnacle may continue their ATL flying with the ex Mesaba 900s and XJT's newly acquired 900s fly elsewhere.

Update did say this is additional aircraft so good news overall

The first two will cover routes out of ATL. The schedule after January 2nd hasn't been loaded yet.

A LGA base would make my commuting life come to an end when I come back to work. Then again, knowing my luck with things that base for XJT will likely never happen.
