Not disagreeing. And not saying that the 220 CAN’T fly those routes. The 220 does better than other aircraft (cost wise) on all sorts of routes. But when you can go coast to coast on a 220 for less gas per passenger than any other aircraft in the fleet, do you really want it going ATL-BHM?
“Without the 717”...that’s my point. No credible info has come out saying we are getting rid of them. It’s an APC rumor.
