Both. I'm sure is is a company ruse to avoid having to pay for displaced 700 crews to train on the e175. If they close the base on 9/20 and open ord to the e175 on 9/21, then reopen It to crj 700s, they just saved a bunch of training events.

Guess the new YV and OO 175s will be taking over some of that lift out of ORD? Or the 700s will continue to start in IAD and flow in and out of ORD for the rest of the trip ending the last leg in IAD?

Assuming that YV was going to fly 175's out of ORD for UA... United wants to reduce the number of regional partners in each hub to streamline operations and maximize efficiency. You are going to see a lot of shifting going on in the next several months.

Air Wisconsin does a horrible job in IAD. I'm tired of waiting 10-20 minutes for marshalers.
I guess with the west coast operation expanding most of the guys that were commuting to ORD have gotten back to PHX, or will have by September.

If anyone has been near the Mesa crewroom around the D gates recently, there is a big poster saying "United Customer Service Training" pointing to a new-ish training center right next to the Mesa crewroom--it's there for a reason--IAD gate/ops is going all mainline by Fall.
