2.5% may seem small but I'd wager the ripple is larger than you think. I have read upwards of 90 regularly scheduled flights being canceled well into June. Assume each flight has an average of 150 passengers (plane capacity is between 138-230) then you are looking at 13,500 lost connections every day, seven days a week well into high time for travel. I am hard pressed to believe that sacrifices will not be made on account of this seemingly minimal fleet size change.
