But cost is a concern to any company I have worked for. I can justify a little extra money for the flight, because the expensed mileage is cheaper, the parking etc at COS, but no company will allow unlimited airfare expense to save a few minutes.
This Moxy airline that doesn't even exist yet will have a challenging road ahead of them, as mentioned before airport convenience is certainly important, but cost is as well. EGE is most certainly not an option for DEN located flyers, period. No idea why someone would drive a few hours each week to EGE when DEN is close and easy. Perfect freedom is hopping in my personal airplane, but companies don't like the cost or the liability of that option. Perfectly understandable.
so if you don't live near a big ugly airport/shopping centre & you could save many hours, up to 4 on a day trip by flying Moxy & save money at the same time ? Luckily in USA you have a huge population & Moxy isn't after 50% of the market, just a small proportion of it.
