The Q400 is astonishingly frugal, so I understand.

This is why so unlikely city pairs are served by them. It's average break-even load is normally half it's seating capacity on most sectors.

The down-side? Some noise from those 15ft props. For me, it's the closest to "real aeroplane" that a modern aircraft gets. But I don't drive one.
