Eagle is expected to announce a massive Displacement bid for ORD based CRJ-700 pilots and a huge vacancy bid for the LGA/JFK co-domicile for CRJ-700 pilots here around mid-month April.
I think the mechanic got it partially right. April 14th is the rumored day of the release of the next vacancy displacement bid. Nice way for the company to continue to screw over the former LA pilots who bid the CRJ to at least get overnights at home. Most will probably go back to the EMJ costing $$$ in more training cycles.

Contained in a SEC other merger related document filed today:

Beginning Sunday, April 14, customers can book flights on routes operated with new Embraer 175 aircraft on regional service between Chicago O'Hare (ORD) and Albuquerque (ABQ), New Orleans (MSY) and Pittsburgh (PIT). The flights will be available for travel starting Aug. 1. Effective Aug. 27, service from ORD on the E175s will expand to Kansas City (MCI), Minneapolis/St. Paul (MSP), Toronto, Canada (YYZ), and Washington Reagan National (DCA). And on Oct. 1, service will further expand from ORD to Houston Intercontinental (IAH), Newark (EWR), Philadelphia (PHL), Salt Lake City (SLC) and San Antonio (SAT). As previously announced, the aircraft are operating under a 12-year capacity purchase agreement with Republic Airline Inc. to provide large regional jet flying for American under the American Eagle brand.


DEN and XNA will be the only gateways to LA for L-Eagle.

Bedford is allergic to western flying. He'd rather keep rjet's service area limited to the part of the country with the highest cancellation rates since his crews get no CX pay despite his company getting it from it's mainline partners.

Hmm and what happened to another E175 operator out of NYC? Face it, no one knows.

I think they decided to fast track bronze working so they can discover Iron and unlock a Maceman.
