Sorry, had to pick myself up... nope, in fact the BMI Regional Embraers are some of the last routes on the BD network where you get full service, and there are none of the 'tiny' fares. The 145 is not a smart choice for lo-co; the way forward for those sorts of routes is props. BE have proved that; the Q400 hasn't been trouble free, but it drinks less and moves like s--- off a hot shovel, so it's been a good choice for them.
