GoJet Airlines

GoJet is owned by Trans States Holdings and based in Bridgeton, Missouri, near St. Louis. It began in October 2005 as a United Express carrier flying CRJ700 jets, flew as Delta Connection from January 2012 until March 2020, and now flies for United. In 2019 United and Bombardier launched the CRJ550, a 50-seat version of the CRJ700, and GoJet was the first airline to fly it. Seats per flight in this data fall from 66 in 2005 to 50 in 2025.

How it changed

GoJet Airlines carried 3.1 million passengers in 2025. Its busiest year was 2017, at 5.3 million.

Its average flight had 66 seats in 2005 and 50 in 2025, a sign of smaller aircraft replacing larger ones. The average passenger flew 605 miles per segment in 2005 and 377 in 2025, and 84% of its seat-miles were filled in 2025.

Who it flew for

GoJet Airlines flew for more than one airline, and sometimes several at once. Our estimate of the split between them, which is based on the airports it serves, is too rough to publish for a regional like this. The summary at the top names its partners from public record.

Fuel

In 2025 GoJet Airlines burned 34 million gallons of jet fuel (an estimate, see below), which is 41.0 seat-miles per gallon and about 0.283 kg of CO2 per passenger-mile. Over 500 miles that's roughly 141 kg per passenger. Small regional aircraft burn more fuel per seat than the mainline jets, and a short hop spends a larger share of its fuel on take-off and climb, so these figures aren't graded against the airlines on the main list. Their flying and fuel are counted in the airlines whose names are on the tickets.

For some years GoJet Airlines didn't file usable fuel figures with BTS. In 3 of them we priced its own flight hours at the fuel burn per hour that other airlines reported for the same aircraft types that year; in 5 we used the median seat-miles per gallon of the regionals that did report. They're marked with an asterisk in the table below. See the methodology.
