Rumor flying around the school house is that OO will be adding 100 new E-175s to the fleet. IAH had Express Jet and Republic operating E-175s and they’re now gone. Mesa isn’t really growing their large aircraft fleet. They’re just shifting 1 for 1 in IAD. there’s a gaping hole to be filled in IAH and OO has been hinting heavily that they’re the one to fill it. Delta is pushing in the same direction. As E-175s continue to grow in MSP, we see them flowing through IAH. It won’t be long before OO opens up the E-175 in IAH on a 2 sided front.

who is losing 70/76 seat flying then? Given that scope is maxed out those 100 aircraft need to come from some other regional (either straight 175 transfers or retiring CRJ7/9 that are in a 70+ configuration and replacing them with 175)

That’s why the 175’s on the UA side have had 6 seats removed from them.
And republic is completely gone from IAH. That happened months ago.

the UA175 have 6 seats removed because of the LOA ** reducing ** scope. And the fact that Republic moved their metal elsewhere doesn’t mean that there is any scope open.

so again, who is supposed to lose 70/76 seaters?

I wonder if SKW got a smoking deal on a bulk order of 175s and will be replacing older DL 900s and, UA and DL CR7s, and maybe old Mesa 900s?

DL has one outstanding airplane on their DCI fleet information list - it’s a 900. All other orders cancelled.

Not to mention UA scope has reduced the UAX flying from 120% to 100% during a drastic cut in block hours on the NB fleet.

How rattled are you about to be if this rumor comes to light. Enough with the cherry picked facts to push your wishful thinking and go back to blowing smoke in the Endeavor forum like a good boy.

Not particularly concerned - if you are going spread pie in the sky rumors at least pick ones that are some resemblance of reality.

I go where I want.

Listen to Meow, he’s right on the money. In fact SkyWest’s base in Houston is going to be closed by June 1st 2021. SkyWest is going to be forced west.
Denver will be the farthest east domicile and that will lead to all the massive furloughs that are coming.
At least 50% furloughs by summer 2021.
