Depends on where and if there are alternaives. If Amtrak could be used there or another rail service then no EAS. I can't see how some airlines can use the Cessna 208 Grand Caravan for less than 5 people. What about other countries that use the Grand Caravan and other small aircraft for short haul.

Air Taxi could be another better alternative but we don't know if that will work than the EAS.
