Takes way too long to fly down to Dallas only to fly back up somewhere west. Denver plz. At least over St. Louis.
in the end, EMAW will always win.
Said they aren't ruling out a sale either. Delta just announced that they are scaling back on their small city routes as well. AA just ordered a bunch of new birds and I'd like to see what the order looked like.

i dont know what any of this means.
Quote from: WillieWatanabe on July 20, 2011, 07:06:31 PMi dont know what any of this means.It means AA just ordered a crapload of planes that are too big for MHK at the same time deciding to prolly sell American Eagle. Doesn't really effect traffic from MHK as American Eagle will get a buyer or operate as it's own towny line but could effect AA point usage out of MHK in a couple years.
Eagle Could Lose Some American BusinessRight now, Eagle is slated to operate 281 aircraft for American, but that number can decrease…and soon. Starting next year American can remove up to 12 ATRs per year, and up to 40 jets per year beginning in 2014. In addition, “American’s right to withdraw aircraft each year is cumulative so that any number of aircraft not withdrawn in any year may be withdrawn in a subsequent year, subject to certain limitations,” according to Eagle. Over time, Eagle may also lose some ground handling business from American as well.
Changing Regional Industry DynamicsIn May 2011, there were (on average) slightly more than 5800 daily departures operated by ERJ-135/140/145 and CRJ-100/200, down from nearly 6700 in May 2008, according to DOT traffic statistics. This downward trend will likely continue in the future as capacity purchase agreements expire and mainline carriers adjust their regional service to the realities of today’s industry, such as higher oil prices. Of course, growth in the larger RJ segment has helped to offset this decrease.
