Nothing that hasn't been announced yet - 30 CR7 for AA. So far we only took 3 or 4 of the total .... Apparently many will go to ORD ...

30 additional 700s were announced for AA a few months ago. These are the ones that came offline from United. They are also in addition to the current 700s already on property. So 40ish total 700s flying for AA

They will be split between ORD and PHX (and a few in LAX too?). Many if not all the ones going to PHX will be replacing the -200s.

I heard all 200s in PHX will be gone except for one (for SGU). We are also flying 700s from LAX-ASE and DFW-ASE.

Its all CRJ, so the ERJ is out of Luck

They haven't really announced any specifics other than what's been posted here already. It doesn't mean anything for a 175 FO other than they are still upgrading alot of FO's.

I interview in a couple of weeks at SkyWest. I was hired at envoy last week. I'm trying to gather as much information as possible in order to make a good decision. I will need ORD. So my correct in my understanding that 30 FO's at Skywest are going to be transitioning to the CRJ Capt in ORD?

So does this mean that Envoy might be getting smaller at ORD?

Who knows. It's all speculation and only the higher ups know the answer. My best guess is that as AA transfers E145s to Piedmont and CRJs to PSA, (both of which are mostly east coast based) and brings on E175s online to Envoy, there may be a need for some CRJ flying in Chicago which could be done by SkyWest. Time will tell though.
