Frontier has a press conference tomorrow announcing new destinations. I'm sure there will be a few new Lynx destinations in the mix.

Who else flies into ASE?? SkyWest operates the CR7 under Delta and United...and I'm too busy right now to search myself, so somebody else can do the bull-work

Yesterday I saw the Mesa Dash from PHX up there again. They always sit for a bit and then go back after a nice long break. The DEN Mesa guys go up there depending on the time of day also. The ramp is pretty small...so it will be interesting to see what happens.

I'd imagine the Q400 will be a MUCH better suited airplane to ASE than any CRJ-derived airframe.

I think the Q-400 will be a great aircraft for ASE. I know the CRJ cannot circle to 33 yet and tail winds really hurt the landing or T/O numbers. UAL (SKW) has flights from LAX, SFO, DEN(and MESA), ORD and Delta (SKW) has flight from SLC and ATL and US AIR from PHX (MESA). I guess the operational perfrmance will also need to be looked at by how the PAX want to get to ASE, Direct or connect. It will be nice the see the 400 up there one of these days.

Upgrades . . . Lynx's hiring

Dolsanddays was right there is suppose to be 12 upgrades. That will mean 12 first officer positions need to be filled again, so if you want to fly at Lynx get those resumes into Claire! They are expanding service as the previous post mentions. Oh and if your are iahflyer don't get your resume in with Lynx's we wouldn't want to have to share the bottom-feeding with you. OK just joshing that was flame-bait!!! Take it easy iahflyer
