Thanks for the question.
Our colleagues in the U.S. say this program works well for communities. It's certainly something we've been asking for.
The essential air service program in the U.S. is funded at $368 million now. It has increased over three times since the eighties. It's a subsidy based on a revenue guarantee, the route and the aircraft type, and they RFP that.
I think that any way we can work with carriers and communities to support these regions that rely on essential service and have no other forms of service or have very little is very important to our network and the fabric of our communities across this country. I definitely think this is a program worth investigating further.
