I am willing to take a shot at responding, but what exactly is puzzling you? Why the service at all? Why is it less than daily? What is reason for 7:30 pm arrival in Denver? I assume the last question might be related to lack of connection opportunities? If that's your query, F9 is moving away from a connection model and focusing on point to point travel. They probably think they can get enough local traffic to make the flight profitable. Hope that is helpful. Willing to try to answer your questions but can you be a little more specific?

Yes - why is the flight there? Is it designed to connect people over DEN? If so the times and 3X seem odd. Is it designed for locals? Can a 3x/week A319 be profitable on that route?
Just wondering the market F9 is after on this one.

It seems like a pretty big plane for a small destination. I assume there are enough locals and tourists, e.g., for Mesa Verde and other attractions to support 3x/wk service. As far as timing, I'm sure they take the rest of their operational needs into account.
