Now the part that really bummed me, their schedules are superior to ours, at least on the American side. Perhaps our schedules in Dulles are on par? Par as in 16 to 18 days off a month at around 90 credit hours? If I can hold a line in Dulles, I'm changing bases. Screw American...
They're not. Keep in mind Skywest has was, 400+ aircraft and we have 100. Give or take. Oh, and Skywest has more departures per day for United then United does.
