with all the name changes lately its hard to know which regional is which

Lets go through the name changes

I will go first

1. ASA is now Express Jet
 
Why are we seeing the name changes?


Atlantic Southeast > ExpressJet due to merger with ExpressJet and epic failure of attempted name change to SureJet.

Mesaba/Pinnacle/Colgan > Endeavor Air to try to turn page after merger, bankruptcy, and acquisition by Delta.

American Eagle Airlines > Envoy Air due to AAG's decision to use "American Eagle" as a brand for all American feed operated by numerous outsourced providers (e.g. American Eagle operated by SkyWest Airlines).
 
Thanks

How about the old chataqua?


Chautauqua is still operating as one of 3 operating certificates owned by Republic Airways Holdings. RAH's other certificates are Shuttle America and Republic. Pilots flying at these airlines are under one combined contract and seniority list. Reportedly RAH intends to consolidate down to 2 operating certificates as they park Chautauqua's ERJs, although to my knowledge they haven't officially disclosed which certificate will be returned.
