Maybe XJT is still in play somehow.

How long do you think it will take for compass management to address the employees about the future of compass? Another month? Never? To quote a compass employee:

"Ugh"

United awarded those to Mesa already. For each 700 that comes offline from Mesa to go to GoJet, Mesa gets an Ejet on a long term contract.

Uh oh. Every source I ever heard was saying (at the time) management was after Mesa’s UA flying and thought they had it in the bag.

As far as I know, there was no other plan.

This could actually be the end:(

But I’m not about to bet my account on it, either

Negative. Scope is maxed out at UA.

If we are done, it’s been a pleasure gentlemen. RIP to the greatest subforum this site has seen.

1-C-1-a-(1) Prior to January 1, 2014, United Express Carriers may operate United Express
Flying under the limitations of Sections 1-K-10 and 1-K-22 of the 2003 Agreement
between United Airlines and the Air Line Pilots Association (the “2003 United/ALPA
CBA”) and the provisions of Sections 1-C-1-b through 1-C-1-f, 1-C-1-i and 1-C-1-j.
1-C-1-a-(2) On or after January 1, 2014 United Express Carriers may operate United
Express Flying under the following limitations:
1-C-1-a-(2)-(a) 37-Seat Turboprop Aircraft; and
1-C-1-a-(2)-(b) 50-Seat Aircraft, provided that such aircraft do not number more
than ninety percent (90%) of the number of single aisle aircraft in the Company
Fleet; and
TA Page 3
1-C-1-a-(2)-(c) Up to a total of 255 76-Seat Aircraft plus 70-Seat Aircraft (“76/70-
Seat Aircraft”), of which up to 130 may be 76-Seat Aircraft, and then, on or after
January 1, 2016, up to 153 76-Seat Aircraft.
1-C-1-b At least eighty percent (80%) of all United Express Flights each month shall be
under 900 statute miles.



Given that they get unlimited 50 seaters, and they're getting rid of 700s that "will go to another UX carrier" (potentially as 50 seaters where there is practically no limit) I wouldn't say that there's no way to find room for another 20 or so E175s. However I just don't see why you'd want to add yet ANOTHER regional carrier.

The 700's are gone, and they are replaced by the 20 new 175's Mesa just got awarded on top of the renewals.

When we have one plane left... they’ll say “just be patient, big news this Friday!”
Real question is, who will I double wave to when we only have one plane left?
