EYW Key West
 
I noticed in the cities served chart EYW shown, got excited thought maybe B6 started service been when I plug in a request for fare from EYW-CLE I see Silver Airways operates the EYW portion. After my last terrible experience with them no thanks I would rather drive to Key West from FLL.
This would be a good route for B6 but the short runway is probably an issue even for the regional jet. Delta does still fly a 737 to EYW.

Right! Only for 737-7, CRJ700 or 900, Saab340, and E75. Due to strict weight restricted. You cannot have more than 1 checked bag. You are allowed to checked 1 bag. WN who already pull out of EYW completely. Due to low demand.

WN did not pull out of EYW due to low demand. They use a different model than AirTran and don't operate stations which a very small number of flights. B6 may serve it at some point but there are more lucrative markets to tackle given the limited number of new planes they will be delivered in the near term.

Yes, you're right. I didn't realize that. I thought they didn't have new aircraft. Then why they didn't put on ex-FL planes to EYW? I am pretty sure they will resume EYW service again in near future.
