Pinnacle crj?

[nisx]

Anyone know what's the deal with the delta Crj-900's. Where they might be, routes, anything along those lines?

 

[flyf15]

Nothing official announced yet. Anything you hear about pay, base, routes, etc is purely a rumor at this point.

 

[Tank Commander]

9e is buying the 900's to fly for Delta. where, unknown. An announcement is suppose to come out soon.

Probably LAX

Unless Delta and NWA merge, NWA will take away a 200 for every 900 they operate for another airline.

Doesn't a 900 make more money than a 200?

Seven has bad sources!

Yep, he normally does, but you have to give him some props for keeping up the Pinnacle bashing for so long.

Here is the truth for ya from the SEC filing, notice the part after the word Notably (I'll translate for SEVEN, they won't get yanked and sent to Mesaba, they can only be retired):

To the extent that Pinnacle operates regional jets on behalf of another major airline, Northwest will have limited rights to remove some aircraft from Pinnacle's fleet. Northwest may remove one aircraft for every two aircraft that Pinnacle operates for another partner above an initial base of 20 regional jets. Northwest may remove no more than 20 aircraft subject to this option and no more than five aircraft in any 12-month period. Notably, Northwest may only exercise this option if the removed aircraft are not operated by or on behalf of Northwest after their removal.
