Midwest getting some Frontier A319s

Looks like Republic is quickly synergising the two airlines. Check out the last paragraph

I truly would love to see Republic become a success story with this, but some of this doesn't seem too well thought out. They should pace themselves.

I think Mr. Bedford meant, that the A318's were still going to be Frontier, but fly on behalf of the code share between YX and F9

Amazing how things work, Midwest was at one time talking about getting 737NG to replace the MD80 :lol:

Not to be rude but your explanation isn't remotely close to what he said? How on earth did you contrive that from what he said?

i to share confuzzleness about this. RPA doesn't have a certificate to operate the A139s, which is where the codeshare would come in. why would you operate EMB-190s and A319s at the same time when you are certified to operate the EMBs already?

Each carrier has it's own certificate

The EMB 190's are on the Republic Certificate

The Airbus is on Frontier Certificate, and Frontier will continue to operate has they always have

Each carrier owned by Republic Airways Holdings is a seperate company

I do not know what is going to happen to the Midwest certificate, but if Republic Airlines Dispatches Midwest flights I am ticked, and our union knows it. Bring the Midwest crew to IND and let them work the Midwest flights the way they should be, with the customer in mind
