Literally just a few pages back. At least a year, most likely longer.

Not sure if this means the planes are going elsewhere or United has decided to finance them for Republic maybe?

It is nothing but ual buying ,at better rates than republic could get, as part of bankruptcy plan. No change other than that.

United will now own the planes, rather than Republic, so until United announces who will operate the aircraft, there's certainly no guarantee we'll operate all 24.

This is definitely not the outlook that was protrayed in Friday's email.

The number of airframes is redacted and it is still subject to court approval. With that said, I'd say the positive outlook of Friday's email is warranted.

I believe so. Maybe someone can correct me if I'm wrong, but I haven't seen any recent news other than a few months ago when Delta put money on the table and we renewed our contract with them for post bankruptcy. I have been keeping an eye on this United deal as it could result in another "western" base and drop the upgrade to around 3.5 years.
