Very true. I don't really understand why they are so concerned with that. Delta, Northwest, Southwest, Alaska...all powerhouses with a small, localized, regional connotation. We don't need to go changing to a complete new name to convey a new "vision" for the company. If they are so worried about it, just keep ExpressJet and move on.
