Beech 1900 Routes

Is it possible to find a list of all routes operated by a Beech1900/saabs etc?

I am trying to see if I can fit a trip on one for my next trip.

I was expecting you to say that you were looking for the list so you could AVOID flying them!

Does anybody know about the status of installing F class on these? Seems to have stopped.

I don't know your reasons for wanting to fly a Q400, but personally, I LOVE them! I've definitely chosen a few awful connections just to miss a regional jet and hit up the Q400.


Now when I get forced into the flying US and get stuck on their ATR 72, that's another story... just shoot me in the head.

Until they're all being operated by Republic, I'd rather drive than fly a Colgan Q400.

I've never flown a Q400 in recent years but cannot wait. I have a private pilot license and looking forward to hopefully being able to watch the pilots in action. In total it added 27 hours to my travel time and forces me to stay a night in IAH and have a total of 7 flights to get from Orlando to Dublin but totally worth it hopefully!

It is almost certainly faster to drive as well.

While US may suck more than most other airlines, they do not have the ATR-72. They do have the DHC8A/B (100-300 series) and the SF34s. I think AA and 9K are the last US carriers to use them.

Ludicrous. Give me narrow over foot cubbies any day, and the AVOD selection on the 757s is a joke.

As opposed to nonexistent on the 747 in Y? At least in back, I think the 757 is probably a more entertaining ride, though I do love 747s.

I love 747's but would much prefer 757 in Y then Y in 747.

Anyway back on topic, schedule change just kicked me off the Beech 1900 and onto a SAAB but I now have my heart set on a Beech. Is there a way of checking which aircraft fly which routes easily?
