This SFO thing this summer is just a temporary glitch, and things should go back to normal in the fall. On a side note about LMT and MOD: LMT was a terrible schedule for crews and passengers alike, and never fulfilled its promise while being one of the highest sources of fatigue calls. MOD is very drivable from other bay area airports, and if loads weren't high, was a logical choice to end service in the face of certain delays and cancellations this summer. Consider it a cutting of losses. It is not, however, an indication that the EMB sky is falling.
