I think all we are competing for are a few U.S. regional flights. It's not like we will be flying to London or Tokyo direct anytime soon. The airlines control the business, not the airports in small markets. $100 a barrel oil doesn't help dreams of point to point international flights in New Brunswick. I can't see the 787 changing that fact either regardless of Boeings PR. Only Halifax with it's 3.5 million passenger number can attract the airlines in the maritimes. They have going for them a seaport with cruise ships, large population and alot of government and universities. Its ironic that New Brunswick cities are split. Saint John has the port, Fredericton has the government and Moncton has the population. I understand what Mr. Ganong is saying but in reality, how many flights are we talking about here? Two, maybe three if we are lucky? Chicago?.... Boston?.... Philly maybe?
