Routes the CRJ and EMB135/145 should not fly
I will start.........Comair, Skywest, Freedom all fly DAY-CVG with the crj and emb....I dont know the loads on this route but I think a turboprop would be better on this 15 minute flight. Maybe ASA can bring the ATRs back and fly this route.
Comair does JFK-DFW in the crj9. I know the plane has the range but as a passenger 3 hours in a crj is a tad but uncomfortable.

JFK to AUS in the 900. Any weather and the aircraft has to stop in route for fuel. That looks mighty stupid in the eyes of the passengers. Had one flight there where we blocked over 8 hours on the one leg due to delays at JFK. Nice to sit 8 hours in an RJ.
