Delta Air Lines is streaming its Delta Connection system down to three carriers. Delta is ending its relationship with both Compass Airlines and GoJet Airlines. The changes will be completed by mid 2020.

The company issued this statement:

“In an effort to reduce operational complexity and create better consistency with the overall product and experience for customers, Delta is reducing the number of regional carriers from five to three”.

This means Delta will keep Endeavor Air, SkyWest Airlines and Republic Airline (Republic Airways) as the three Delta Connection carriers.

Delta-owned aircraft at Compass and GoJet will be reallocated to the remaining three carriers.

Compass Airlines currently operates 36 Embraer 175s for Delta. It also flies for United.

GoJet Airlines currently operates 20 Bombardier CRJ700s and seven CRJ900s for Delta which will be transferred to Endeavor Air.
