So much for the DEN base. The next 19 175’s will be awarded to Skywest in replacement for their 19 700’s out of DEN much like Mesa and the 20 175’s for their 700’s in IAD.

If XJT isn’t getting them or the DEN base what’s the announcement on the 12th?

Haven’t heard any such rumor of anything on the 12th?!?

The batch of 19 175’s and DEN are probably linked together so both or nothing.

Been a rumour going around that there’s an announcement on the 12th. We’ll see. Hopefully they get them

Guess we’ll find out in a week. Hoping for the best.

Lets hope not, maybe United doesnt want skywest as long as we can keep the class levels up. Even if OO does get the 19, its not like they are getting new flying. We have plenty of 145s to staff though which will lead to more routes. Upgrades are coming down fast all we need is more pilots. Theres no reason someone who wants to fly a lot even on RES shouldnt come here.

That not a friday. Get out of here until you get a calendar.

Didn’t Mesa’s news of the 20 replacement 175’s drop on Monday? Usually good news is a Friday in most cases.

Big news friday is a joke. Like an on going thing.
Bad news is on Fridays after hours because the market is closed and the wall street gold fish spend the weekend killing brain cells.

Not sure why you keep referencing the 175 deliveries to Mesa and possibly Skywest as ok because it’s not new flying. It’s replacement airframes which means longevity for the airline and longer routes. Not to mention new hires want to fly new metal and it’s a great recruitment tool.

ExpressJet desperately needs more good news and new 175’s to keep going. New hires will not come without them.

Not to mention Skywest gets more actual “new flying” in a 6 month to year timeframe than this place has gotten in a decade.

145 routes out of IAH are short hops in many cases. You’ll do 5-6 legs in order to get anything over 5-6 hrs pay for a day. That gets old real quick going to SHV, GPT, CRP, etc. over and over.
