It depends on how you show the slide to the wall street boys. Remember figures always lie and lairs always figure.
I've been concerned for awhile that we want to show load factors vs total cost of the good provided for sometime now. I honestly think we are leaving money on the table in several markets by flying full smaller jets. PHX to SLC pops into my head right away. Our competition flys full 737s and A320s and all but two (early morning and late night) of ours are Skywest RJs.
