More Airframes
Reliable source told me possibility we will be bringing more airframes online from CPZ next year when a few of their contracts expire.. We have proven to the codeshares we have the ability to hire and since new planes are still far out, we need more lift sooner. Announcement after New Years possibly.

That would be a bit bittersweet but I’ll believe it when I see it. It’s the nature of the business, but I hate to see growth at the expense of another pilot group.

So, yeah, the planes can go to any regional that can have bases far enough west to support the flying routes, but it's difficult to see Republic or Endeavor doing that without expanding bases westward. Skywest seems a likelier target. They already have 170 Delta Connection aircraft as well as bases in Seattle, LAX, PHX, and a number of other cities in the West.

A southwest flow would be nice! But who needs it when they pick up our guys quick anyway
