Highlight of note: Chautauqua to replace nine SkyWest EMB-120s with up to nine E-140s by the end of the year. No more EMB in SLC?

Where are you getting this?? The E120 is mentioned nowhere in the article. And DL just can't swoop in and say, "Your at-risk routes are no longer at-risk, so we're going to throw someone else on it.)

Paragraph 7:

Republic has separate contracts with Delta for both its Chautauqua and Shuttle America subsidiaries. Chautauqua's contract includes 24 50-seat Embraer 145s and expires in May 2016 at the end of 2011, according to Republic's 2011 annual report. The airline is expected to add up to nine E-140s to replace nine 30-seat Embraer 120s that are flown by SkyWest and will be removed from the fleet by the end of the year.

And actually, they can. That's essentially what they did with XJT'S at risk flying.

I'm more surprised that management hasn't mentioned anything about this to you guys.

Paragraph 7:

Ah, okay. I see it now. (Search failed me! Blast!)

Anyhow, if the E120's are going away, THEN I could see the E140s filling in on most of those markets (SUN probably being the only exception here) since the E-120 wouldn't be there; however, OO has been saying that the E-120's are going away for what, 10 years now? I'll believe it when I see it.

Alot of those routes are pro-rate/at risk with city EAS money contracts... Unless SkyWest is let out of these contracts or is able to swap with CHQ. I doubt this is true. Unless its on the United side, and the "bloger" just took it as Delta stuff...

What does this sentence say?

What does this sentence say?

It says that the author/editor couldn't be bothered to proofread.

Another reason why Delta may want to get rid of the 50 seaters.

This is also the main reason why SKYW, Inc has been posting low quarterly profits for the past year. They ramped up the amount of aircraft it was doing overhauls on to have everything done early. OO is way ahead of the game, not sure where EV is sitting.

SkyWest is a sinking ship, just like all of the other regionals. IMO, it will not be a good place for a long term career (there will always be someone willing to provide feed for less). Eventhough moving to NWA/Delta stung my QOL and $ at first, it has been worth the transition and will pay big dividends for the future. Lots of 50 seat RJs will be retired soon and only 70 76 seaters will be added. A big net loss in pilot seats coming your way.

 

[XPOO]

The word is, SkyWest already has a taker lined up for whatever 50-seaters it loses flying for in this Delta deal. SkyWest will take whatever 76-seaters Delta is nice enough to let them have and transition the 50-seaters elsewhere as needed.

Maybe you are right. Maybe you are wrong. The Regional Shuffle sure must get old. Not a good place to stake a longterm career.

 

[Skywest Pylot]

SkyW Inc has a LOT of 50 seaters. Probably gonna be hard to keep those flying as contracts expire. The Cost per Seat Mile is way too high.

The word is, 1. SkyWest already has a taker lined up for whatever 50-seaters it loses flying for in this Delta deal. 2. SkyWest will take whatever 76-seaters Delta is nice enough to let them have and transition the 50-seaters elsewhere as needed.

1. DING DING DING
2. WINNER WINNER CHICKEN DINNER

Keep an eye on the APA/AA deal. IF and IF that deal passes, there will be a 3 way deal that involves AA, DAL, SKYW and ASA. Sorry XE.

You skywest guys are really confident

 

[10nCLR]

YES we are! Management has 40 years of that atitude.
