Im sure the public will say how great a jet would be and the perceptions that it will be safer etc etc etc..... but when it comes to buying a ticket, two things will be the priority...
1: It is the CHEAPEST ticket on offer.
2: If he/she is not paying for it or the cost is not a consideration then SCHEDULE REGULARITY will be the next deciding factor.
Can a jet deliver to the regions on the above?
