What about the 175 makes it not a regional airliner? The fact that you're on it? Lol

A national airline has to pick up THAT route in order to not consider us a regional? Disagree with that premise on “short flight” being the benchmark. I believe there are shorter flights than Waco that are flown by national airlines. Haven’t researched it but I’m sure I could find something.

This is a good example of how some members here make a diving catch in the in-zone to diminish what we really do here. You’re managements best tool.

So what is your definition of regional than?



regional

[ree-juh-nl]

adjective

of or relating to a region of considerable extent; not merely local:

a regional meeting of the Boy Scouts.



of or relating to a particular region, district, area, or part, as of a country; sectional; local:



So we certainly fly into different regions than we departed unless you consider DFW and Calgary as the same region or DFW and Montreal the same region or how about ORD and JAX the same.



Add the fact that we fly the same type rating as they do mainline, with literally no difference other than passenger count.
