These aren’t small cities, they’re barely towns. they can’t even support 50 seat RJ’s without lighting taxpayer dollars on fire via EAS money. I’m happy to see them go.

Look at places like Decatur, IL. It’s an hour drive to Springfield. We shouldn’t be wasting the time, pollution, or taxpayer dollars to fly a 50 seat RJ to a place that can’t support it economically and has a viable airport within driving distance.
