Sax Crj-700

With the 2 CRJ700s due to arrive, maybe we can have a seperate thread about it, not under the old 'CRJ900 demonstrator...'

Both is now scheduled, first one from 17 November doing JNB-Lubumbashi-JNB-GRJ. The second one from 1 December doing JNB-WDH-JNB-WVB-JNB-WDH.

Both JNB-GRJ and JNB-WDH is scheduled to take 15mins longer than what the current CRJ-200s do...any ideas why.
Also the one doing JNB-FBM&GRJ tends to stand at all the airports around 1h10 to 1h25mins, why so long turn-around times.
The last flight, JNB-GRJ is scheduled to arrive at 17:20, but only leave again at 18:55!
Wouldn't that cause unnecessary extra labour costs...pilots/crew, as well as groundstaff being the last flight out of GRJ?Or is there something wrong at the scheduling department...

Also, no flights loaded for weekends, only Mon-Fri...any ideas what they'll do weekends, take a break?
