United is announcing ten new routes, all of which will be flown on CRJ’s or EMB-170’s. Any idea which of these routes are Skywest?

I read that the new routes (some seasonal) will be done by CRJ200,E145,E170 and E175 aircraft.

I'm guessing republic and TSA will be flying them along with SkyW.

ORD-LWB and SHD-IAD and back, SkyWest starts 1 April 2018 (at risk)

SkyWest has a bid in for SLN and EAR, both EAS destinations.

I don't see any new ATL routes for Delta listed, but I understand that SkyWest is growing the ATL pilot base in Dec. 2017, and adding aircraft for further growth thru the first 6 months of 2018.

Where can I find the current routes being flown out of ATL by SkyWest, and what additional routes will be added with the additional aircraft being added each month thru 2018?

Also, approximately how long to hold a line for an F/O or Capt. out of the ATL pilot base, especially after the additional a/c arrive in the summer of 2018?

How many days off will a monthly line usually have for 30 / 31 day months for a line holder and / or RSV pilot? Guessing at 11 days off for RSV, and between 13-17 for a line holder?

Thanks, AU

No Delta routes listed because the thread was specifically about new United routes flown by regional carriers. These are actually new destinations, and not just recycled ones.

Having said that, you can see the SkyWest Delta routes here:

Which routes will SkyWest acquire out of ATL? I don't know the precise answer, but with Expressjet ending all of the Delta flying in the next 13 months, the flying will mostly be divided up between Endeavor and SkyWest.

I don't see any other Delta Connection carriers planned to fly in and out of ATL in the next few months.

How long to hold a line in ATL is a moving target right now. For an FO, it will be fairly quick. For a captain, probably awhile for a new hire, but the base is very junior for captains. This month, there is only 1 reserve line, and a large number of captains awarded ATL are currently still in training. I think it will take a couple months to see how everything shakes out.

As far as days off, reserves get 12 days off in a 30 day month and 13 in a 31 day month.
Line Holders will typically get 11-15 days off, but possibly up to 17 days off depending on how they bid and their seniority etc. As a line holder, I have never been awarded the minimum days off (11), but I am usually awarded 12-15 days off.

Give it a few more months to see the true ATL route picture.. crew base is going from 14 Captains today to 66 in January..

Since there is no EV CR2 flying left, there is nothing left to gain there. Both 9E and OO are doing roughly 1600 departures a month out of ATL on the 200.
