In another thread, it was mentioned that UA has retired 21 ERJ135/145 this year. It will take another 25 years to retire all of them at this speed. It is wishful that UA will do that. One just has to choose the "poisoning pills" (I mean, RJs) carefully if one has to stick with UA. Even when you have to fly on Q200 or CR2, which is a norm at my local station (ORF), you just have to choose an aisle seat.
