I wonder how many of those cities losing RJ or prop service could support it load factor wise? Maybe there will be a market for someone looking to operate a caravan operation to a hub. I suppose cities losing all service could go the EAS route and try to woo Great Lakes.

Might also fix the title to 50 seat jets...the turboprop looks more marketable than ever when fuel prices get high.
Let's just hope these will be flown by mainline pilots at mainline pay rates.
Nearly all so-called regional jets sold between 2010 and 2019 are expected to have 51 seats or more — with the biggest category being jets with 76 to 130 seats, according to Forecast International.
