The company only makes substantial money if it operates it. Codesharing, to correct myself, is only pennies on the dollar, So if B6 can fly it with B6 metal and make the money, it will.
Btw, why do you think we do DTW? Think about it and get back to me...
DBX, nope. I see you had to pick an idiotic example to try and make your point.

Whats idiotic? Its an example of codesharing leading to more required B6 flights. Intl codeshares feed more flying.
Ill type this slowly BD, because I know you're flustered.
When B6 can go to some of those exotic places, you gave your heart set on, then B6 airplanes will fly them. Now do you know why?
$$$$.
Better than the pennies on the dollar that codeshares produce.
Digest it?...good.
Having fun yet?

That's some bold statements. In case you haven't noticed, this is a very risk-averse company these days/years.

Flying to those destinations requires significant INVESTMENT and RISK. Our company no longer invests in the actual airline and doesn't take risks. We go cheap and easy, think 3 more frequencies to SDQ is a big announcement for us.

So while codesharing is pennies on the dollar, the COST and RISK of generating that revenue is far lower.

Having intelligent debate is fun. Much of the last couple years has been anything but intelligent.

Im actually disappointed in you BD,
You do not understand this section, and believe me, it took a few phone calls for me to have a better grasp also, so I wouldnt expect any of us to be experts.
Codesharing can actually lead to growth and that example I gave is a prime reason. You wanna talk JAX-HNL?
Let me know.
Bottom line is that any codeshare that B6 could fly itself, either now or in the future, it will and it will be on our metal- Thats just dollars and cents.
Study up- Call a rep- Talk to a legacy rep too.
You're reacting without the benefit of all the info.
Keep reading and asking, and Ill do the same.
Peace

BOZO, be carful with the interpretations you get from your reps. Is the companies interpretation what really matters. Not saying they are wrong on this specific matter but it happens.
