I've noticed a pretty big percentage of Eagle to mainline upgauges in Charlotte this Fall:
-AVL gets an additional mainline frequency (2x daily A319)
-GSP gets back mainline service on CLT-GSP since the early 2000s and I believe will be the shortest mainline route ex CLT (2x A319)
-ILM has a huge mainline increase...some days the route is entirely all mainline (5x A319/A320) other days the route is 6x mainline and 1x Eagle
-GSO will have 4 daily mainline flights
-ECP goes all mainline (not sure if mainline was ever on this route)
-Some days SAV is entirely all mainline, with other days have an additional CR9 frequency
-AVP is entirely mainline (3x A320)
These are just the ones I saw, there may be more.

I think I saw in the October schedule that only 19 routes (18 with the removal of DBQ) were all 50 seater.
Those include fairly large markets like YUL & MSN.
And some markets like AVP, COU, DAY, & FSD are scheduled to be upguaged in the "placeholder" schedule to fully or partially CR7 or E175.
That only leaves 12 all-50 seater markets from ORD, that would be likely cut.
ALO is an EAS, subsidy only started 2 months ago.
Most of the other markets left would have service from another hub outside of ORD though.
CWA & MQT seem like outliers, that could be next.

Just out of curiosity, where do you find the upcoming schedules? I want to see for myself which airports are at most risk of being cut from ORD.

Will SJC-CLT be flown with a A319?
CLT-SJC is scheduled to be an A321, as are all transcon flights (LAX/ONT/SAN/SMF/SJC/PDX/SEA/SFO) from CLT in the most recent schedule this Fall.
Someone mentioned above that there are financial incentives tied to ONT-CLT.

I got a schedule update for my CID-Destin trip with the upgraded Airbus flight but now I have a 6 hour layover coming home and a 4 hour layover going. The morning flight to CLT usually left at 7am but now it’s at 5:05am and the flight back normally 630pm and now 9pm. I’d rather not make any further changes To it if it’s only going to change again.

Looks like a lot of others are like this too.
From ORD, some 145 markets are going to the 170/175 including RST, LSE, and ATW.

Love to see those go away! What does the ORD schedule look like from CID?

All internal proposals, so very much subject to change. Still showing 3x day to ORD for the rest of the year, November is all 145s but some -700s sprinkled in in the months before.

Is LAN at risk of losing AA service, or is AA likely to continue serving LAN?

Do you have a link to a source for this specific cut?

In addition, AA adding BWI-LAX nonstop service and AA re-adding BWI-PHX nonstop service are possibilities as AA likely still has a FF base on the Baltimore side of the Baltimore/Washington region due to the former US BWI hub to support BWI-LAX/PHX nonstop service on AA.

The US hub in Baltimore closed almost 21 years ago.

FlyLEN2019 wrote:What do you guys think is next in terms of AA at FAT? I know that we get a lot of DFW (4-5X 738s daily this summer), but PHX has been cut back from previous times this summer (we’ve had 1-2X A319/20s daily plus 1-2 CR7/9s). I bet traffic is being directed at DFW mainly, but we had ORD cut after a very successful summer where loads averaged over 90%. I bet this is due to staffing issues, but do you guys think ORD could be brought back in the future?
