Its silly to think all these pax are doing the legwork and trying to book "E Jets" over the CRJ-900 lol
Yeah yeah, I know, "my neighbor is a power medallion busy businessman busy with business and he always books the E Jet product, blah blah blah" but honestly, does anyone really think more than half of one percent of pax actively tries to book one over the other? And even the percentage that does, how many actually change airlines to chase the glorious "E Jet" lol
I agree the percentage that go out of there way is very small. The disdain is apparent however, just not enough to change enough peoples minds. Just a week ago I had an older gentleman and his wife get up from the back of the airplane and nearly knock the flight attendant over as she was about to close the door. He apparently didn't know the aircraft was that "small" and became claustrophobic and had a violent anxiety attack and needed off immediately. They decided to drive instead. (ATL-AVL)
