Speaking of E90s, any idea of whether they're going to keep going with the 99-passenger config on them? The last time I flew an E90 the front seats were Midwest Signature (I'm guessing; never flew YX pre-RJET but the plane was still in YX colors), and were as such without a doubt more comfy than Stretch on an A319.
Side note: just watch RJET E70s get WiFi on Delta before it reaches Frontier E90s...grr...
Was the seating in the E190 1x2? If so those were the ex-US Airway E190's Republic received a few years ago.
Has wifi been rolled out yet? Last I knew it was supposed to have been finally introduced in January or February of this year.
