If regionals are having a hard time filling classes now, wait 3 years. Mainline will eventually get this flying back.
Where is that article? I remember seeing one that said they expressed interest in doing so. But, I don't recall seeing a firm order. Plus if they did, why are they talking COLAs in the E jet?
