I agree. Anyone in a UA base complaining about 700's pairing knew this was coming...

Is this a trend for other bases such as DEN or just SFO? I need to make a final decision on equipment soon. Everyone says to go to the CRJ for hours, but I'd eventually like to get to DEN.

Id say most of our base size and trip quality on the CRJ side has been due to the United 700 change up. All united hub/outstation domiciles have been affected negatively. Iah is the most obvious. While Ord crews are being almost unaffected due to American 700 flying blowing up there.
Den used to be busier. Cos has even less diversity in flying schedules than it did before.
There have been other minor changes but the 700 change put all of this in motion.
I'm curious at which number of 7/9airframes they have planned to stop triple qualifying everyone. We may be far far from that number but still curious what their playbook says.

United re-upped only a few of their current 145 fleet for XJT. UA can't move all of their 145's (UA ownes the XJT planes) to another carrier overnight and they only re-upped what they knew could not be moved to one of their partly owned carriers in the next year.

Someone here probably has the number of departures though.

I wouldn't worry about departures but just based on what I can see on the CRJ side in Colorado. DEN and COS are extremely stagnant because of us losing the UAL CRJ's and expansion of the ERJ. Same thing going on in SFO.

Is SFO also only United like DEN is?
