You guys are missing the whole point, there is nothing but good things about to come to our airline. The future is looking good for us. Once Delta votes
In their TA, life is going to be sweet at Expressjet. The regionals are now the new mainline.

That's funny. When I open up the Delta bid packets for the DC9, MD88, A320, B737, and B757/767 I see a lot of domestic flying.

UAL brings in more revenue from its united express flying than it does from its own domestic flying.

Difference is CAL/UAL use an rj where a 737 should go, and a 73 where a 75 should go, and so on.

Something else no one has mentioned is the terms of the cpa between CAL/UAL and the new XJT. You see folks, J.A. is anything but stupid, when Skywest inc. bought XJT, JA made sure that it would be a long term deal. The public documents released post the announcement of the merger indicate that if they (CAL/UAL) pull one 1 rj, it has to be replaced with something, on a 1 by 1 basis. So for those of you that like it simple:

Per the CPA:

UAL pulls one RJ from the XJT 145's

XJT gets 1 whatever (700, 900, 170, pick your poison).

So I ask again, my fellow embraer drivers at XJT; what's the rush? We're not losing any flying anytime soon, the crj guys are. Let the pieces fall where they may first, then we'll talk shop.

I thought it was a 1:2? ie, one 700/900 for 2 50's? Either way, I think we will be ok.

Nope, I'll try to find the link, but its a 1-1 replacement. Not worried about it.

Since our contracts are not a single list yet, if ASA needs to furlough will it come from the junior EMB guys?
