We are finally equipping the 700s with ADSB
Mesa purchased at least half of the 700s from the leasing companies. This is in their SEC filings.
With the announcement of united wanting to convert 700s to 550s and use them on business heavy routes DEN makes sense. The new 550s would be good at high altitude airports and would reduce FA staffing requirements.
Don’t believe it till you can bid it.

The E-Jets have been at IAD for about 4 years now. I think the proper question to ask is "What's the possibility of Mesa opening an E-Jet crew domicile at IAD?" And the answer would be directly proportional to the possibility of IAD ceasing to be a CRJ crew domicile.

I stated two facts that are fact. No rumor involved.

I thought it was fact that Gojet was closing Denver and there UA hubs would be EWR and ORD only...leaving a void in Denver. They’ve been telling new hires that Denver was happening for a few months now I’m surprised it took this long for someone to post on the forum about it.
