While this is all very true. You also get more days off on the 900 (if not reserve) since many of the flights are actually longer than 45 minutes. In NYC the 200 schedules were going to complete sh1t when I left it and there was no movement cause it's being greatly reduced there. If you go to ATL, have fun being 20 in line, on leg 3 of 6, in the summer when it's hot as hell and that APU can't keep up, or heaven forbid it's deferred. And the other fun part is you get to fly through all the enroute weather instead of having a chance of getting over at least some of it.
