Amazon flying starts in October 2018 with initial fleet of 22 MRJs growing to 64 by June 2018. Bases include SEA, PDX, LAX, ORD, BOI, ONT and SLC to start. More details to follow.

Regional aircraft have almost no excess cargo capacity. They have barely enough cargo capacity to carry passenger baggage.

SKW operates no dedicated cargo aircraft.

You forgot CVG

That hub will be a different regional doing the flying in converted regional jets

Back to real talk... conference call just said OO getting 5 more AS E175's in 2018. When was that announced? Can't keep track of it all.. The best part was in the Q&A when someone asked about potential new flying/growth with our partners. He stumbled around his words and then said. "Stay tuned" ...

P.S.
One of the best bonuses in a while!! My math puts it just over 6% of your quarterly earnings..??. Someone with better math skils check..
(Financial bonus we get every quarter with the earnings call. We aslo get 2 pilot profit sharing bonuses a year on top of those 6 total a year... i know someone is going to ask..)

This rumor needs to get killed with fire.

Don't forget when they said (presumably with a straight face) that we are properly staffed on pilots.

Company definition vs our definition of "proper" are realy different... trust me. Sitting down with them listening to how they determine it is not what a line guy wants to hear...

Guess it doesn't matter until flights are getting canceled for staffing. I haven't witnessed that first hand *yet* here.
