Either they've done a crazy amount of demand research and they've planned their flights accordingly... or they're scheduling based on aircraft availability. I'm more inclined to think that its mostly the latter, otherwise you wouldn't have such a messed up schedule.

I thought the entire way you made money in this industry was by keeping your aircraft in the air as often as possible on routes with reasonable demand. Apparently nobody flies on Tuesdays.

I'm obviously not the target market... but I think they're pretty much sunk in 12 months.
