You are right. However these routes are only a success if they manage to get the correct aircraft flying the correct routes. DND is a successful route on the D328 however lost money when it was operated by the F50. I think WX will have the same problems on the NUE and will find it hard to make operating a RJ profitable. I also WX will find it difficult to attract the loads needed to make the route a success based on the current schedule. By that I mean the routes lack of a morning departure from LCY.
