Our company was gonna do CRQ-SMO but Santa Monica had other plans for he airport lol. I'm shocked that Great Lakes even has airplanes flying.

Skywest used to do that route in the Brasila right up until 2014. Landings at CRQ is a good restaurant!

This would be better as a code share. Lots of high income folks in that area- it's not exactly an EAS market.

I don't think it's EAS (high dollar area, 30 minutes from SAN), I think the city may have subsidized it.

I doubt UAL wants to code share 1900's.
