There are 12 non stops per day EWR-DFW (June 9th).

The 6 AA flights are on MD-80's and 737's.

4 out of the 6 UA flights are on A320's or 737's. Two are E-170's.

There are two AA flight options on mainline that compete almost directly, schedule wise, with the two UA RJ's.

Similar to the OP, the fact that you ended up on an E-170 is a self inflicted wound. You could have, and should have, known better...

Apparently a strategy you need to make others here more aware of...
