B6 and ACK

well, to revenue share, they would need to get an anti trust agreement with Cape Air, which would require a lenghtly and expensive litigation and legal process that both B6 and 9K throw money at.


remember, the fact that they code share and are partners does not preclude them from doing things in their best interest. B6 feels that they'd rather take the revenue 100% for themselves at one time during the day during the high summer season, and believes there's enough demand out there so it wont be diluted.

Time will tell.

It's a goldmine because with capacity low, fares can be high. However, if B6 throws tons of capacity at it, fares and yields will come down.
