depends. Some regionals have minimum block hour guarantee.. And EAS routes are subsidized and must be flown.. We have seen this before. Some regionals thrived. Some really hurt. Look back at history and you can figure out who has good contracts with there partner that keeps them flying..
Every regional will feel the effects the next 2-6 months. Its after that that you will want to watch what ones bounce back and what ones are hanging on by a thread..
