What have you heard?
United does have 25 new Ejets coming on line to replace CRJ700’s. If they are GoJet’s 700s, then those are based in ORD and DEN. If some of those are ours, they are IAD based.
I didn’t think we ever wanted ORD as a base again. Republic has been shrinking at ORD. We would be better off with a DEN base than competing against a ORD junior base from other regionals.

United is looking to buy XJET from SKW and place there the new 25 175s they just ordered. 25 700s will be replaced that are currently operate by SKW... SKW I in talks to place them with Delta
Also in talks to tag all their pilots at the bottom of their seniority list
and as their capacity agreements end of those aircraft they own and lease (175s) to other regionals eventually coming to the XJET operation in the near future
No scope negotiation needed for that

Maybe, we are moving the 700’s there under American colors? Let’s really get a good rumor going.
