Buying another regional from AA (or another major) to provide that major with short term liquidity may not make sense financially for OO short term, but could help secure lucrative long term contracts. It's all about the long-game.

We'll see.

In the past, liquidity provides time for a company to get its cost below its revenue and back in the black.

AA would burn through every penny Skywest could give them in 15-25 days.

that assumes envoy instantly picks up all the piedmont load. You could just mothball piedmont’s airplanes, spread the load to wo/ffd/mainline (plenty of capacity) and spin envoy back up when demand returns

Envoy loves clapped out 145’s. We could bring our birds home and give them love. Maybe bring our stolen CRJ’s home too while we are at it. At least one of them so that the Commander has his beloved bird back.
