In the very back of my mind I seem to recall SO flying to AGS from somewhere unusual, so that would be RC by this time. But since the southbound trip has only two airlines, and I can't imagine two legs by the AUG airline, I'll reserve RC for the northbound (to start; after you tell I get 1 out of 18 data points correct things will change!).

Let's start with:

AUG-BDL, PM, DHT
BDL-LGA, PM, F27
LGA-CAE, RC, D95
CAE-AGS, RC, DC9

AGS-ATL, DL, D9S
ATL-BOS, EA, 72S
BOS-AUG, QO, B99 (QO = Bar Harbor Airlines)

  • neither trip involved PM or RC, although DL, EA, and QO are all CORRECT
  • neither trip had a connection at BDL or LGA or CAE; ATL and BOS are CORRECT
  • as far as aircraft, DHT, D9S, and 72S are CORRECT
Oops, you're right! I doubled-checked those directions and still got it wrong!

Just to make sure we're on the same page here:

AGS-CAE, RC, DC9
CAE
-LGA, RC, D95
LGA
-BDL, PM, F27
BDL
-AUG, PM, DHT

AUG
-BOS, QO, B99
BOS-ATL, EA, 72S
ATL
-AGS, DL, D9S

Just while we confirm that I understand what you said, I'll correct the B99 to a CNA.
