Competition for your custom isn't bad, folks.
My guess is JNU will maintain 738 and above to ANC and SEA and become something of a regional connecting hub for the smaller SE communities, sans KTN which should be able to maintain service to SEA on its own. The JNU-KTN flight will probably also go to Q400...I think AS has a federal contract (Forest Service?) to keep flying that one.
Not sure how SIT will fit into that during the winter...I could see 1 or 2 Q400 flights to JNU and a Skywest nonstop to SEA in the winter, or 3+ Q400 flights to JNU and that's it.
