What did Shuttle American fly before the E-Jet?
Seaborne, American, and US Airways ticket counters dominating this part of the SJU airport.
Saying there is absolutely a zero chance is kind of a red flag for BS on here especially when it comes to AAG trying to staff airplanes. Seaborne only got the Saabs to do American flying. Seaborne might get some, Piedmont might get some, Republic might even keep all the ones they are supposed to get, or not. AAG management knows, and every has been waiting for EGL to vote no. Makes more sense that this is the outcome AAG wanted.
How do I get to this fantasy world you live in? I agree that this is the outcome AAG wanted... but hell Republic can't staff what they got but you think Seaborne could? Never going to happen. That picture of the ticket counter means nothing. They are code sharing on the saab flights. That's about it.
