Guy I know went straight from new hire training to US Airways. They didn't even know he was at a 121 carrier yet (he was fractional before here). They called based on an app that was 4 months old.

Expressjet/ASA will be flying the CR9 on the new SEA-YVR route starting June 5. Wonder if this is just the usual delta connection shuffle or growth.

Flights begin June 5th, 2014 :

DL 5437 SEA 0745 - 0835 YVR D CR9
DL 5441 SEA 1035 - 1125 YVR D CR9
DL 5447 SEA 1325 - 1415 YVR D CR9
DL 5451 SEA 1625 - 1715 YVR D CR9
DL 5453 SEA 1915 - 2005 YVR D CR9

DL 5459 YVR 0615 - 0705 SEA D CR9
DL 5437 YVR 0910 - 1000 SEA D CR9
DL 5441 YVR 1200 - 1250 SEA D CR9
DL 5447 YVR 1500 - 1550 SEA D CR9
DL 5451 YVR 1750 - 1840 SEA D CR9

That's really odd... We'd have to be in SEA first. Wonder how it would flow out there. There's gotta be more to this. That or SkyWest is getting some of our flight number blocks

Edit: Sure enough, in DLNet, it shows "ExpressJet", I'm guessing this will change before then... it's still 6 months out

6 months is a lifetime for some airlines.

I wouldn't read too much into that. Flight schedules are very fluid until about 2 months out. Times, flight numbers, equipment, and DCI carriers can change quite a bit. Most likely the route planning folks arbitrarily picked some flight numbers to upload an initial schedule. These will be switched to SkyWest, Compass, or perhaps Endeavor since they started taking delivery of new 900's already.

Comair was doing some SEA and other northwestern flying a couple years ago. It flowed out of MSP. Are there any EV flights to SEA from MSP during the times of these flights?

Those will be all SkyWest flights.

Could possibly flow via the msp-yvr flights. But who knows... With the amount of growth Delta has been doing out west in LAX and SEA maybe Skywest didn't have the resources. At least it's staying for now in the "family" lol

No. We will never fly out West again on the CRJ side.
