As far as PAX go, it is much better.

no its not, the seats are so uncomfortable, and the windows are down by their knees

It has nothing to do "our" love of the 700/900. They just make more sense to fly.

They lowered the floor so it's not as bad. I do agree, on the 50 you have to be adout 8 years old to look out the window. And yes I voted for ALPA

Good man!!!

No, they don't because the loads don't call for it. It makes sense to keep those RJ's on routes that have higher loads. Thats why they don't put the 700/900 on the same routes as the 120. Think about it.

And I've ridden on a CRJ900, its no better than a CRJ100 or CRJ200. The seats feel the same, and theres really not any more room.

By your comment I can tell you've never been on a CR7 or CR9. The floors been lowered for more head room and better visibility out the windows as well as a dramatic improvement in the A/C systems that provides for a very comfortable environment for the Pax. Add another Lav and the fact they we are ALMOST NEVER WEIGHT RESTRICTED and you have an excellent airplane.

I think you've been in FAT city to long. Look at delta net and see where we fly 700/900. Dude, lose the anger towards the RJ. I once flew the 120 and loved it. The RJ is no where nere as fun to fly as the 120, however, 6+ legs a day for the same pay as 2 legs on the jet is what it's all about. Come over to the dark side, I know there's room for you!

No, we fly them where UAL & DAL want us to fly them. I understand that they do the analysis to determine the demand, but when it's time to change they do what's necessary. An example is the fact that we are parking 18 EMB’s and replacing them with CR7's & 9's; we closed our EMB base in DEN and some of those routes are now covered my RJ's. Don’t forget that a lot of our SoCal/NoCal routes on the EMB are also flown by the RJ. LAX-SBA, LAX-FAT; SFO-FAT, SFO-SBA, SFO-RNO, SFO-MFD. There are more but I just wanted to name a few. BTW I was KFAT EMB based for almost a year. I’m very familiar with the bird and I’ve never had more fun flying than when I was flying the EMB out of PDX.
