Next, prove to me that the terminal is definitely being expanded, and the supposed expansion proves that Eagle would be operating the jets for it.
Never said it did, pal. Do a little more reading (listening) and a little less barking.
I did, however mention the 100 seat aircraft would either be for Eagle or a potential codeshare with Jetblue. At this point there are no other scenarios involving 100 seat aircraft at AMR.
As for more facts...sorry, I don't have any of the copy and paste variety. Two days ago I did ask some construction guys in the terminal if they had heard anything regarding an expansion of terminal B. I didn't say anything about 100 seat aircraft.
They responded by saying that not only was an expansion happening, it was for 100 seat aircraft and AA was wanting them to "put a rush" on completing the construction.
Like I said before...I have been hearing this for a few weeks now. That article today was the first I had seen of it outside of Eagle.
