Probably, but SKW holdings has a lot of 50 seaters to find a home for, yes they found a handful for AA but that won't happen every time they park airplanes. RAH in the other hand is a mess, can't find pilots and Frontier is supposedly not doing so well, couple with underbidding the competition and a trip down bankruptcy to lock in a long term contract with labor could be in store, ohh and park the 50 seaters.

In short...every where's a crapshoot and the 2 yr guaranteed upgrades are a thing of the past.

Anyone know where I can find an ASPEN reference card on Jetnet. It should be in the virtual manuals right?
