What the C-Series order means?

Okay, but of the two (Delta or United) who has the most retirements. I asked as there is still hope maybe with this Delta, order that United might also be close to a deal too. Less regional jobs (C-Series is an RJ killer) means more mainline jobs. UAL & DAL being my top picks.
American so far seems far less interested in the C-Series. And far more interested in 76 seat jets at the regional level, and the flow up to mainline.

The 50 seaters will be replaced with 76 seaters, and the 76 seaters will be replaced by mainline jets. This means DCI will likely be around 350 aircraft, or less by 2025. It's likely that DCI is reduced to only XJT, and Skywest due to their required presence in some markets. They have the government subsidized flying, and the ATL gates.
Also, if you think Delta is going to let a few gates dictate their business model then you truly don't know Delta. Optimism is good but the scenario you mention is likely a pipe dream.

Keep in mind that while Delta is taking on small narrowbodies to replace MD80's and 50-seaters, it's unfortunately doing everything it can to outsource the best-paying top-end widebody jobs too. If you want a good career at mainline, gotta stay focused on the whole picture, not just getting there.
