Many captains make that. LCP's clear quite a bit more.
BUT
Any pilot will tell you that you MUST budget on min guarantee. MUST. If you get into a situation where you must clear X to survive you're begging for sadness.

the 550 has no distance with it. Remember, it has to meet scope weight as well, so it’s limited on how much fuel it can carry to keep takeoff weight down.

DALPA does have some similar language that is not as restrictive. The main issue that DAL sees is a 70 seat airplane is not economical for a 50 seat configuration. Further consideration is that flying ATL-CSG or MSP-RST, you don’t need 10 first class seats and 20 comfort plus seats. It’s a 20 minute flight.

Devil’s advocate, the weight and distance limit is a function of UALPAs scope agreement baked into the derivatives certification to make it legal per scope.

Must be projected to meet FAR minimums, must have 2300 Total Time, and 800 company flight hours. Upgrade is just under 4 years at the moment (11/2017).
