There is no reasonable explanation as to why any of the lakers stayed there. It's pretty bad when at worst they could have left for Mesa or Gojet and it would have been a step up. I get the folks that did not have 121 minimums, but everyone else.

I didn't see a list within the past year but it was funny seeing hub communities that have multiple airlines flying into them listed as EAS. Apparently they can classify for a size aircraft so the multiple airlines "don't count."
What a farce.
