"According to a 2006 New York Times article on the program, the subsidy per passenger, averaged across the entire program excluding Alaska, is approximately $74, and much higher on some particularly poorly-patronized flights.[9] Subsidies are as high as $801 per passenger.[10]
Patronage on many flights is very low. The majority of EAS planes have fewer than 20 seats, and flights typically are less than half full.[11] However, the program is politically popular in the cities receiving the subsidized flights, many of which use an airport with scheduled service as a selling point to attract industry to their regions." |

Date: November 3rd, 2015 1:32 AM Author: offensive party of the first part These examples are nothing like the podunk-town subsidies paid by the federal government.
PDX subsidized Delta to keep a Tokyo route during a downturn and to avoid the more costly option of losing the route. Sonoma (a popular wine tourism destination) subsidized the upfront costs of service from a small airline, which is now successful in the region. The Last One i did not read because ADD.
I think that the fed program I linked is bullshit because of examples like these. |
