You really are clueless.
1. Doesn't take much to make a 50 seater weight limited for a jumpseater. Safety first.
2. The fact that you are actually promoting whipsaw and other regionals bidding lower to get flying shows you have no idea what harm that does to YOUR pay and workrules. That puts pressure on your pay and workrules when the cost of the regional feed goes down....You are only slitting your own throat when someone cheaper comes in....
BWAHAHAHA! You call ME clueless and brag about how your airline has made money during difficult times. Ummm.. yeah, Joe, and why is that? Because you were guaranteed a profit, regardless of how much it hurt mainline! You love history. Take a look at what happened to ACA when they decided they were too cool for school.
You go ahead with that threat there tough guy. You must have missed it the first 10 times I said it. I'm speak slowly so you can follow.
I
Don't
Care.
But I bet United does.
