.

Funny, I thought this was the new webboard, seeing as the Alpa ones dont work.

Was checking to see if there was any info on deltanet. Came across this tidbit of info.... Wonder what that means for the nyc 88 category.


Shuttle ops starting move to E-175s December 8, 2008

Starting in January, we’re beginning the transition to Embraer 175 jet aircraft on our Delta Shuttle operations between New York-LaGuardia and Washington, D.C. We fly the LGA-DCA route currently with MD-88s except for two daily flights operated by Shuttle America with E-175s.
On Jan. 5, half the LGA-DCA schedule will be operated by MD-88s and Shuttle America E-175s offering the same ground and in-flight service as today. On March 28, the route will be operated entirely by Shuttle America E-175s.

An increase, or decrease? Look out below makes me think it's a decrease. Here come's the "F" word.

That is not true. This is definitely a problem. The DELTA Shuttle is a huge and financially successful operation. Something is starting to stink around here.

I agree. I don't remember anyone talking about this lately.
