Too bad the MRJ doesn’t have a 50 seat variant under the max scope weight limit for 50 seaters. That company sure misses the mark. I don’t expect anymore development out of them, I think they’re about busted barring another few billion infusion from the Japanese government.
The weakest performing eas markets will be dropped and some will get a PC12 if they’re lucky.

It’s win for both DL/AA/UA. They get the revenue on the connecting flight. Costs them nothing.. or they get nothing when that pax drives, then SWA/F9/ ect...

how do you think OO has grown to what it is now... wasn’t contract flying that got the 800 mill in the bank...It was 45+ years thinking outside the FFD box.

Not sure why no ones listens to acmnd. He’s usually spot on, I’ve already seen a couple of markets Delta has dropped from SLC go to 200 pro rate flying.

OO didn't grow to what it is now based on pro rate / risk flying.

Of course it didn’t but it’s an important piece in a balanced portfolio of revenue.

No doubt about it. Absolutely a key ingredient in it all.

No one ever touches my Jo Jorgensen sign. I feel left out.
