The argument of which equipment MIGHT be more comfortable on a flight thru a thunderstorm is probably lost on the vast majority of intra-state Colorado air travelers. The amount of cash that this promo raises for F9 will not be significant to the bottom line, either.
What IS important is that this promotion has been reported by the main-stream media in Denver. Consequently, many people are now aware that they have a choice in air carriers if they are traveling within the state. As many of us know, it is a welcomed choice, too.
