Default Part 121 Regulations Question

Nevertheless, the general population has shown no such reduction in their
air travel.


I'm not sure that's true (though I haven't reviewed the stats). I do
know that people are plowing money into this air taxi stuff, and jet
cards are becoming more popular, even at the higher prices. So there is
evidence that the inconvenience of commercial air travel is impacting
travel plans, at least at the corporate short haul level.

Remember also that some of the commercial short haul traffic is heads
and tails of longer flights. I'll bet isolated short flight passengers
are down.

For most people, convenience and time are inseparable.


They play into each other, but indirectly, and the distinction is
meaningful.
