Looks like 450 total DCI
105 50 seats
102 70 seats
223 70-76seats

Not sure which category the extra 20 can be

Scope is locked at Delta for at least 20 years, this is it, there is no more room for expansion in the regionals with US carriers. If there is any expansion, it will be with NAI type carriers.

I was under the impression (from reading on the Delta contract negotiations) that the current 50 seat limit is 125. Which adding 325 large RJs to 125 50 seat, you get 450.

And yet there are still those that want to say SkyWest is going to keep the 50 seat planes.

I don't think SKYW ever made the statement to get out of the 50 seat market - at least not as far as I can recall or find.

Or this one in response to me stating skywest was getting out of the 50 seat market.

If you saw the opposite quite frequently, then maybe you should stop reading the company propaganda and start reading the share holder info instead.

How much bigger does the writing on the wall have to be for you people. And before everyone jumps on me again for bragging, I'm not. I am just trying to warn those looking at or working at XJT. XJT was a great airline until SkyWest screwed it up.

I still work at this place, been telling people for the last two years we would shut down in 5 years. Looks like I'm right. Just 3 more years and we are gone. Looking to get out. Comair started out the same way. Saw that one coming but the Comair guys ignored the writing on the wall. Same thing happing now and we still have nay Sayers. It's over. Read between the lines.

Hahahahaha. Screwed it up by keeping them out of bankruptcy? How was that branded flying going?

Branded was abandoned in 2008. But it was the CPA Skywest negotiated with CAL in 2008 that made that flying unprofitable. So despite shuttering branded, XJT still lost money. And it's that same cpa that is still causing the unprofitableness on the ERJ side (the 2nd lowest clause Skywest negotiated with DAL for the ASA flying is the cause for that side).

Why are you assuming they would have been liquidated? Pinnacle, Mesaba, and Colgin fared pretty well in BK, compared to liquidation. XJT is being cannibalized right now which could easily end worse than a restructure.

No one knows what would have happened.. but one thing is for sure. There cards are stacked with the wrong aircraft..
