If not, Great Lakes goes just about everywhere they do.

Thanks, but not the leg I need - DEN - HDN!

In that case, Mesa.

Mesa is my current ride, but 4 hrs between my FedEx arrival in DEN and Mesa's first departure to HDN is a bit long!!

Try your feeder, Corporate Air. I thought one of their Caravans went to HDN.

Nope. Two issues. No jumpseating on the Caravans is allowed and the Caravan in HDN comes out of Casper.

No jumpseating on the Caravans?
Fascinating....
I guess many of them don't have 2 seats, though.

Not a matter of the seats not being there, its just not allowed!

In that case, it doesn't say much for management's confidence in the Caravan.
Mainline pilot's confidence either, LoL.
No particular criticism implied, I'm just a bit surprised.

I believe it has to do with the lease agreement that FedEx has with the Feeder operators. FedEx owns most of the planes the feeders operate. I'm not exactly sure the reasoning, but that's the way its always been!

Okay, thanks for the info.
