I heard a big-wig talking about SkyWheezy buying more planes. What kind and for whom was left unsaid.
Transitioning planes from the desert or from L-ASA sure, but this was the first I've heard of more factory new purchases.

The rumors have been around for two months now. More CRJ900s and E175s are the rumors. For DL and AA. Nothing has been announced and hearsay.

Announcement out on the ASA side. No more DL flying for them after Nov 2018. They are placing some 700s with AA and mentioned that most likely the others they owned eventually going to UA. All 900s going to Endeavor.

UA 700s were not announced. The 145 contract is extended.

I didn't think Delta had any more large RJ scope left, other than the ones that were just parked and not transitioned to Endeavor

You are correct. Edited my post for clarification.

Delta IS scoped out. Someone has to park planes. Like I said, only a rumor. The rumor I heard was 35 planes for AA and 30 for Delta. I'll believe it when I see it.

I'd imagine you guys would get the remaining 30 of Expresssjet's 700s. Skywest owns those birds. Or I guess 8 of those are going to the american operation. So remaining 22 going to Skywest I guess. I cant imagine ASA still being around with only supporting a little bit of American flying though.
