Does SkyWest have any contracts expiring within the next year or two? Totally serious question I have no idea where to find the info. What about RAH and Mesa? I’m curious because it seems obvious to me this would be the first regional flying cut, but if everything is on a long term contract that changes the equation dramatically.

Unless you're already working, the only places to go are (in order):
Endeavor
Envoy/PSA
Piedmont
Republic/SkyWest
ExpressJet
Mesa
The only thing that would change order would be living in base.
The rest will be going through reorganizations, mergers, bankruptcies, acquisitions, buyouts all which create stagnation, potential downgrades and nasty things you want to avoid.
