Who flies the Bombardier CRJ-200
Two questions in one table. Airframes is what each carrier reported owning in its US DOT fleet filing; seats flown is how much of the type it actually operated. They can rank differently, and the gap is the interesting part.
| Operator | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| SkyWest AirlinesOO | 128 | 6.3M | 97.7% | 23.6 yr |
| Air Wisconsin AirlinesZW | 63 | 146.9K | 2.3% | 23.9 yr |
| Gulf And Caribbean CargoGFQ | 5 | — | — | 19.8 yr |
| Silver Air3EQ | 1 | — | — | 5.9 yr |
Airframes are the latest Form 41 filing; seats flown and share are US DOT T-100 for the type's most-flown operators — a dash means a carrier isn't among them (a freighter operator, or one that flies fewer).
How old is the US Bombardier CRJ-200 fleet?
Age is measured from each airframe's delivery date — the FAA airworthiness date where available, otherwise the manufacturer's. Bars share a fixed scale across every fleet page, so two carriers can be compared directly.
