Flew for Crossair a few years ago. I seem to believe that there were some initial teething problems, but the company was very positive about it. I remember sitting next to Moritz Suter at dinner one evening and him telling us that one of the best things about the SAAB 2000 was that the breakeven load factor was about 12 pax, just a few more than the 340. It's been awhile, so I don't know what their position on the aircraft is now. Also, I remember that they received money from SAAB because the aircraft did not meet the noise levels as promised.
