Just wondering.
Slice could tell you better but i think block hours have actually increased over the last few years even though the mainline fleet has shrunk slightly.
There’s only 20 190s and 50ish 80s left. They’re being replaced by 73s and more buses. The fleet is supposed to stay relatively stagnant.
