JSX's ATR 42‑600 gamble: 30‑seat turboprops may unlock point‑to‑point premium travel
JSX's move to operate 30‑seat, all‑business‑class ATR 42‑600 turboprops on U.S. public‑charter routes is a calculated gamble. The aircraft's cabin product, potential travel‑time savings on point‑to‑point city pairs and JSX's premium positioning could make turboprops commercially viable where incumbents rely on congested hubs.
