Air Wisconsin’s fleet of around 60 small metal tubes will shift from flying as United Express to American Eagle starting in March. United wasn’t interested in this big fleet of small planes anymore, and American was – so this deal aligns with the strategy of both airlines. Here’s why.
To be clear, a route operated by a CR2 is better than a route that doesn’t have air service. And in some cases that’s the relevant margin on which the decision gets made. But that may not be true for every route Air Wisconsin operates for American. It’ll be a downgrade in passenger experience, but still a better passenger experience than a wagon train or horse drawn carriage.
