Dulles has 40-50 rj 200s and 145s Parked there at any given time,all with outside boarding .
Elderly passengers waiting in the rain , bags getting soaked , bit by bugs , all after you just got off a a 2-3 hour ride on that 200 with poor ac no wi fi and being extremely cramped
Great way to treat passengers.

Probably more of a defensive move than anything. Southwest is expanding in DEN and sending full 737’s into markets that we only send rj’s to. They are also now in IAH. They are targeting us, not the other way around. If United’s answer to them is to keep sending 50 seat rj’s into the same markets, then we have already lost the fight.
As of 6/11: 56% of widebody planes flying, 76% of narrowbody a/c flying and 95% of express planes flying

If UA ever fails , and I hope it doesn’t , but if it does ,it will be because of its love of rjs.

Maybe so with Delta, only at one or two remote locations served by a 200, not at a major hub .
