Yea maybe if they pull ALL of the seats out. Maybe they can fly some cargo or something. The scope clause won’t allow for one more regional aircraft to fly pax. That’s the nitty gritty. UAL is capped out. They won’t allow another regional aircraft, unless they pull a 175 out of service to replace it with those clapped out 900’s on a 1-for-1 basis.
Ask yourself the likely outcome for that scenario…

Scope is a ratio or narrow bodies to RJs. As the max deliveries increase scope caps will increase. A CEO of a publicly traded company can’t make public statements that will materially affect the value of the stock if they aren’t factual. It’s been negotiated. It’s done. If you don’t like it that’s your problem.

The additions of 737-700/800/900/Max8/Max9/Max10 or any A319/320/321 do nothing to affect the large regional jet ratio. United would have to order and receive a small narrowbody such as the A220 or B717 to affect the ratio. It is impossible to get the CRJ-900s on the property without removing EMB-175s.

Because it won't happen.i can't guarantee much in life, but I CAN guarantee that UAL ALPA won't be giving scope concessions.

Whether that really will happen remains to be seen, but that's their dream right now.

What they are talking about does not require any change in scope. They are talking about parking 175's they can't staff and replacing them 1:1 with CRJs where they do have pilots for now. Avoids a huge training backlog at Mesa and gets instant lift for UA.
