Any E-Jet fans know which airlines fly them into LAX and what the routes are? I'd love to fly on one, but never seen to get a chance because of where I live and where I'm headed.

Air Canada to YYC, and YVR 3x a day to each city. Midwest operated by Republic Airlines to MCI/MKE 1x a day.

Hey Ikramerica...Just hang in there. Rumors (again RUMORS) around Republic is that there is going to be a West Coast base opening up soon and everyone (well maybe not everyone) around the company thinks it will be in LAX.
As for me I think it could be true (but again just a rumor) because Republic is hiring flight attendants like crazy and they had an open house interview session for flight attendants in LAX on Feb 11.
Also rumors (again RUMORS) that Republic does have an order in for E-195. Cockpit and Galley gossip on my last trip is that something is happening at Republic, but what, no one really knows.
Again A-Netters this was what I heard (and that is why I said the word RUMOR). Take all this with a grain of salt. If and when it happens Republic will make a public announcement.
Fly Safe and I hope you do get a chance to fly on an E-Jet. It is a beautiful plane.

Is this Republic itself, or Shuttle America?
If it's Republic, I can't imagine who it would be fore. I don't think it can be AA or UA due to scope contracts with the E-195 (and AA doesn't use Republic anyway - nor does UA for that matter, but UA is the type of airline to partner with any regional out there if the terms are right). It would be interesting if it were DL (another airline that Republic doesn't fly for at the moment).

Hey Mir.. Hope you are having a good day !
The rumors is no one really know what cert will fly out there. If any of the rumors are true I think UA will be the best bet, however Skywest kind of has that market. We would probably never fly the E-175 for DL out of LAX due to Skywest.
Again Mir...RUMOR here, that it could possibly be Alaska Airlines under the Republic side. No scope clause there. Well that is what I have been told.
You know flight crew are the best to start rumors. I am a flight attendant for Shuttle and I just got home from a trip and I heard alot of rumors.
My friend in HNL told me yesterday that Mokulele is doing well on the HNL-OGG. Flights are pretty full and that the owner of Mokulel what to try the E-195 from the West Coast to HNL. I kinda laughed at that. I know the E-195 could make it, but who would want to fly that far on that plane when you can do a 757 from LAX.
I could list all the rumors I heard the last few days, but I would be here all day typing them out. However I do ( I am sorry I admit) I kinda believe the rumors of a West Coast base opening soon whether or not it is LAX or not.
Fly safe

I believe the E-jets fly from LGB to SJC, SMF, SEA and PDX for sure. I know OAK is still all A320's, but SFO could be a mix.

Is it possible that Republic might try pulling the Expressjet thing and run their own brand up and down the west coast? That would be interesting to see. It would definitely give the west coast fliers another choice.
Here we go again...saturate all of the west coast markets!

Dont forget LGB-AUS-MCO, and that once-a-week LGB-IAD flight that was posted as a thread a couple of weeks ago, and I think LGB-ORD is still E190.

I would not rule that out because Bedford does one day want to have his own airline, but there aren't any rumors around the company about that.
It is a nice thought though...

We currently use the E-190s to SEA, SMF, PDX, AUS and SFO. SJC only gets the E-190 on the morning LGB-SJC flight, the other is a A320.
LGB....where you can watch the grass grow because the traffic is so slow.

If that is true, Boyer really has illusions of grandeur. This week he had employees delay their pay so they could conger up $300,000 to pay Republic, with another $300,000 due yesterday (now in a 5 day grace period)

From what I understand is Boyer did not ask them. They volunteered to withhold one pay to help out. Hopefully things will pick up for them HNL-OGG have good loads.
I just hope rumors are true about an LAX base with us and maybe Ikramerica will get his chance to fly on one of these beautiful planes.

I also still yet have to fly on a larger E-jet. I've had my share of flying on the 140's and 145's. But I think my next opportunity is going to happen next Fall to YYZ from SEA or on the way back.

Just to be clear, the smaller planes are not E-Jets, they are ERJs. Two different families. ERJ stands for Embraer Regional Jet, while the E-Jet is not limited to regional use. It is a short haul model but can do certain transcons (just as B6).
So it's ERJ-145 but E-175...

DL flying out of LAX? That didn't work for XJ with the 145's...what makes you think it's going to work with the E-jets??? I guess I'll have to see it to believe it.

You what's going to happen in a few months is that B6 will change all of their LGB-SEA flights to A320's. It happened to me in reverse.
I flew B6 (for the first time) from LGB-SMF on business and it was an A320. Just a month later, the two daily flights became E-190's.

What's funny about that is my type ratings say EMB-135/145 and ERJ-170/190.
And there is no such thing as the 175. That's a marketing term. It's really a 170-200.
