If the CRJs are transferred are there 175s to replace them? Has there been anything definitive on the 175 options? Seems like a net loss of aircraft to me unless the 175 pipeline increases. Opening LGA hasn't actually added any flying has it? From what I hear on the schedules there are still a lot of efficiency that could increase flying. Does anyone know the stats on pilots per airframe and hours per airframe flown per day?
Those numbers and their trend are what is important.
