But re-dispatching an F'ing RJ is stupid to begin with. On a 3 hour flight what do you save from the 10% maybe 300LBS?
Re-dispatching works and saves real gas on 8+ hour flights in large aircraft. Only 9E and Delta would come up with something as stupid as re-dispatching a regional jet.
ASA will be running STX (former route of 9E) in May. It will be on a 700, so they sould be able to run a full load.
PNCL did this on their own. Phef em... let them rot.
