Actually, I don't mind the CR7's and E70's much at all. And to be honest, my experience with express service has actually been better than many mainline flights, for the most part (flights operated by Mesa being the noteable exception, and have always been poor). Usually, they're happy to serve drinks/snacks (even on shorter flights), and I find unlike mainline, the cabin crew are always friendly, while its a toss up on mainline.
