None of them are traveling commercial, nor in general, going through the main terminal of any airports.
Seems to me that an EMB190 is going to spew a lot less carbon and burn a lot less FOSSIL FUEL than a 757 or an MD-80, but as usual, the greenies want us to do as they say and not as they do! Who would have figured that the Republican would be the greener campaigner! Remember, Al Gore arrived at the Oscar awards ceremonies to collect his award for his anti-fossil-fulel film having flown to LA in a fossil fuel burning jet and driven to the Kodak Theater in a fossil fuel burning limousine.

Just my observation.
