• Translates into time-saving access to the world from the regions
WHAT WE DO HOW WE DO IT VALUE CREATION
• Safe operations: No. 1 priority
• Right aircraft on right routes Predominantly turboprops; selective use of regional jets Route Assessment Model
• Neighbourhood airports, often with short runways
• High frequency schedule establishes local preference
