Has Anyone Flown ExpressJet?
ExpressJet operates many flights as a CO "commuter" carrier. However, they now fly RJs on quite a few routes under their own name -

Many of these routes are very convenient nonstops between secondary cities. I was wondering if anyone has flown them and what the flights are like.

Every time I fly CO I take an ExpressJet from DTW to CLE and they're quite nice... I've heard a couple horror stories about dirty bathrooms and the like but to be honest it has always been such a short flight for me I never get up. The FAs are nice and if I asked for something to drink they've always provided (they don't bring a cart down the isle in my case).

Seems okay to me, especially given my lowered expectations
for express carriers. Last time the FA threatened someone with
a $500 fine for using his cellphone but made up for things by
offering a relatively excellent snack box.

There is an active thread on ExpressJet here in our Other North & South American airlines thread. I'll close this TravelBuzz thread and invite all to continue the discussion to the linked thread. Thank you, Ocn Vw 1K, Moderator, TravelBuzz.
