If that's a fact, then the vote better be no. Unless it's a 20 to one ratio or better. That's their "in" otherwise.

Everyone in this section of the forum better hope the heck not if so.

Does Boeing or Airbus even have a 100 seat airframe? The EMB 190 and CRJ 1000 are both uneconomical hunks of crap.

I think the airlines would love to fly the B717 if they could get their hands on more but they can't.

The closest thing would be either the A-318 (if it's even still in production) or the 737-500 (again, if it's even still in production) the B-717 at Delta is configured to 110 seats. I don't think any us airline still flies the 318 or 735. Not sure what the Emb-190 seats, but it's probably in that 100-110 seat range.
BTW the CRJ-1000 is actually a separate type rating from the other CRJs (100 through 900)

There simply aren't enough regional pilots for increased regional flying. My guess is these will be on mainline United and won't come at a cost of more 76 seaters at the regionals.

Jetblue flies the 190 with 99 seats so only 2 FA's are required.
