Mesa Air to order CRJ900s, first new aircraft since 2011 bankruptcy
– canadianbusiness.com
MONTREAL – Mesa Airlines, the launch customer for Bombardier’s CRJ900 regional jets, has reached agreement to buy seven planes, the first new aircraft order since Mesa exited bankruptcy in 2011.
Mesa said it has reached an agreement in principle to buy the 76-seat planes and operate them for an undisclosed major U.S. airline.
The planes, to be delivered later this year, are valued at about US$320 million based on list prices. The Phoenix-based company also has an undisclosed number of options.
Mesa CEO and chairman Jonathan Ornstein said the planes are the perfect size for hub-to-hub service. With the order it will have 64 CRJ900s in its fleet of 115 planes.
Ornstein said the company couldn’t consider the larger CRJ1000s or CSeries planes because they have too many seats to be flown under pilot agreements for regional carriers.
And while Mesa is aware of Bombardier’s financial challenges, it isn’t concerned about the future of the Montreal-based aerospace manufacturer…
