It won’t happen overnight, but hopefully before too long the market demand is met with a mix of 175’s and mainline aircraft. If not, we can continue to send in our junk to pick up the scraps of our competitors.
What airport are we discussing? MKE? You made it sound like SWA was your only other option.
