Totally this. I've never operated a 4 leg day on the 220. I had one BOI turn (yea, regional stuff) and it got equipment swapped to a 737. 220 is more efficient at 2+ hr stage lengths and even does transcons. No international layovers (yet) so if you want those, bid elsewhere. It's got the cool tech, though.
