Look at Regionals September 26, 2004 By HUBERT B. HERRING If you want to travel a popular 2,000-mile route - especially if it's served by one of those low-cost airlines that are such thorns in the wings of old-line carriers - the competition is so fierce that the airlines will practically pay you to hop aboard. But if you want to make the 200-mile hop from East Podunk to West Podunk, assuming that there is still such a flight, the sky-high fare would lead a traveler to expect a personal jet with crystal Champagne flutes. So it's little wonder that while the likes of a chipper Southwest slug it out with the likes of a bloodied US Airways, small regional carriers - including American Eagle, SkyWest, Express Jet and Air Wisconsin - are topping the profit charts. In the second quarter, the regionals posted a 9 percent domestic profit margin, the Bureau of Transportation Statistics reported, compared with 7.2 percent for the low-cost airlines. The old guard, meanwhile, had a loss of 2.8 percent. There's nothing like being the only game in town. http://www.nytimes.com/2004/09/26/business/yourmoney/26count.html?ex=1097213743&ei=1&en=d450e95d96baf224 --------------------------------- Get Home Delivery of The New York Times Newspaper.
