Adding stops means burning much more fuel. Besides, there's really no need for multi-stop flights in southern NB. All the major centres are w/in 60-90 minutes of each other, which is a pretty reasonable drive relatively speaking. Can you imagine a major airport every 90 minutes in Southern Ontario?

Air Canada does not care about covering NB at all - all flights are operated by Jazz. Westjet covers Moncton and St. John (seasonal) with their 737 service, when they are able to fill their planes with people. Poor old Freddy is going to live with the Jazz service it gets now!!
