2. It's not that these planes can't fly in bad weather, but because canceling a smaller plane effects less travelers than canceling a mainline flight. Canceling an RJ opens up a slot for a mainline plane when IROPS/weather reduce the number of take-off/landing slots when the airport is running under restrictions.
