Off to Baton Rouge for the day tomorrow; 324.8 NM from ADS, but (unfortunately) client's wife is mortified at thought of him flying in a "dangerous little plane," so we fly commercial.
"How much," you ask, "does it cost to fly round trip Dallas to Baton Rouge in a skinny, little jungle-jet?"
Wouldja believe, $764.00 ROUND TRIP?
Southwest can manage a grown-up jet plane to New Orleans for $266.00 round-trip, and they pay their pilots top wage. Why can't American Eagle make a rational price?
Just because you can charge a lot, does not mean you must.

Talk amongst yourselves.
