That's true, but at the same time they aren't Avelo. If they want to become one of the big boys, they need to build a network that supports that, not just one that flies routes no one else thought were worth it (plus SEA routes, of course). Otherwise, I guess they can call ICE Air and see if they need another charter carrier flying south...
