ExpressJet Questions
Bronson has questions about ExpressJet:
"I see they fly out of Tulsa and yes I know tulsa has totally different demographics then us, but my question is, this is a different airlines, not low cost, and not a legacy carrier is this an airline SGF would have a shot at or would it be harder then one of the other airlines. I know your answers are limited due to any pending contracts ( I hope) but if you could please answer as best as possible that would be great. Thanks so much."
ExpressJet is a regional jet company that flies for other airlines. In April of 2007 it started flying under its own name at discount prices. Look at the airline's route map. With the exception of a couple of California markets, everyplace the airline flies is much bigger than Springfield. That's strike one against us. Look at the route map again—see where they fly? Which one destination would you want them to fly to? The only route that might make sense is service to Kansas City. However, history has shown that Kansas City-Springfield service is not viable. Sorry...
