Two months now of big dumps of CRJ capt in Ord and no announcements. Speculating AA stuff could be bigger than I've heard.

Could you let me know of some specifics: how many routes, in what airplanes, and what it means from your perspective for a new FO in a 175...?

My theory is we're slowly taking Envoy's CRJ flying.

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.

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.
