Split of article
Any objection to splitting this into two articles? Vegaswikian 02:54, 3 June 2006 (UTC)
- Not here.. I'm going to wait the obligatory five days, then split them though.. —Cliffb 06:01, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
Origin of Call Sign?
I am very curious about why the call sign of "Brickyard" for Republic Airlines. If anyone knows, could he/she add it to the article?--Mmpartee 22:56, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
- Oops, never mind, I figured it out. It must come from the fact that they are HQ'd in Indianapolis. --Mmpartee 23:00, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
History of Republic Airlines
The prior "history", showing that Republic Airlines started as Chautauqua in the 1970s, is simply wrong.
Chautauqua started in the 1970s, eventually was taken public as a holding company called Republic Airways Holdings (RAH) with one operating subsidiary, Chautauqua.
Later, RAH needed to create a new subsidiary -- Republic Airlines. Republic Airlines was a separate subsidiary from Chautauqua -- and was created from scratch. Nothing to do with Chautauqua, except that they were sibling subsidiaries.
Republic Airlines didn't exist prior to 2004. That's when it started. Not in the 1970s as Chautauqua.
They are completely separate subsidiaries, and indeed, completely separate "Part 121" certificates. In fact, the fact that they're separate companies with separate certificates is the whole reason Republic Airlines was created. It was created for the specific purpose of NOT being Chautauqua. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Enplaned (talk • contribs) 04:24, 14 July 2013 (UTC)
Other Republics?
I flew Republic Airlines, Los Angeles to Puerto Vallarta, in 1981 or '82.
I also flew on a Republic Airlines plane from a NYC airport to LA in 1993. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.187.223.153 (talk) 08:34, 24 July 2013 (UTC)
No More US Epxress
US Express doesn't exist as a brand any longer. If you can explain this well, feel free to update the lemma accordingly. 76.11.79.151 (talk) 08:40, 4 November 2015 (UTC)
United Passenger Drag-out
I read somewhere that United flight 3411 is actually run by Republic Airline. Can somebody with more knowledge in the topic verify? I think it might be notable that, if this is the case, they are responsible for a 3% drop in the value of UAL stock. 50.59.88.46 (talk) 17:50, 11 April 2017 (UTC)
- I'm looking at that now, and don't want to put anything in the article until I'm sure.Yojimbo1941 (talk) 18:47, 14 April 2017 (UTC)
