Where is Delta getting large regional jets from? Republic/ASA/Comair or Pinnacle
Delta expects to more than double the number of nonstop destinations it serves from LaGuardia by adding or preserving service to more than 30 small- and medium-sized communities. The airline plans to add new flights to more than a dozen cities not currently served by US Airways. In every slot where US Airways operates small turboprops today, Delta will operate larger jets. These new markets and larger aircraft would allow more than two million additional passengers to transit LaGuardia each year without increasing the total number of takeoffs and landings.
Doesn't say regional jets, just jets...who really knows but the next rumor is an A320 base for mainline....
A lot of the routes we just aquired were flown by Dash-8s and Saab 340s. They will be upgraded to CRJs and E175s probably, with a couple cities maybe getting an A319 or DC9 possibly. I think current routes from LGA to FLA may get larger mainline planes (A320s or 757s) instead of current MD88s or A319s---hence larger mainline planes. I have heard rumors of the DL Shuttle getting DC9s, or maybe A319s. Who knows?

Everyone will be rotated through I'm sure. Mesaba's 340's, Comair's 700s and 200s, Shuttle's 170/175s, Pinnacle's 200s, heck, why not ASA or Freedom or even Skywest?
Woner what and who will serve HYA, ACK and MVY next summer?
