A Houston, TX based U.S. national airline which currently operates a fleet of 274 Embraer Jets, consisting of EMB-135ER, EMB-135LR, EMB-145EP, EMB-145LR, and EMB-145XR variants. Expressjet is consistently a top performer when its performance metrics are measured against other airlines who operate aircraft of a similair size. Expressjet is publicly traded on the new york stock exchange, and their symbol is XJT.

ExpressJet operates approximately 49 of these aircraft with an airline of their own name, serving 24 US cities. Most of their destinations are in the southwestern US, but they serve cities from coast to coast. 10%-20% of those 49 aircraft are typically devoted to charter-only duties at any given time. They also operate 205 aircraft on behalf of Continental Airlines as "Continental Express" out of Cleveland Ohio, Houston Texas, and Newark New Jersey, and an additional 20 aircraft on behalf of Delta Airlines as "Delta Connection" out of LAX.
I took expressjet from Raleigh-Durham North Carolina to San Antonio Texas last week. It was a great flight. They gave me a free headset so I could listen to the complimentary XM satellite radio installed in every seat. I enjoyed their dollar beers and three dollar cocktails, not to mention their meal service, which was again complimentary. Best of all there was no middle seat, I valet checked my bag, and since there were only 50 seats on the plane I didn't have to wait forever to get on and off! I haven't had service this great on an airline in years!

The word 'flag' as pronounced by people with thick Belfast accents. The term is a perfect encapsulation of the disproportionate and overblown reaction to the removal of the Union Jack (as in 'de fleg') from above City Hall in Belfast. Where previously it had flown for 365 days per year, it is now flown on 17 designated days of the year - in line with many other British cities.

The event caused a portion of the Protestant community ('fleggers') to make international pricks of themselves as they proceeded to wreck the fucking place, claiming it was another erosion of a 'British' identity they perceive to have been under attack since the horrifying spectre of equality reared its head in Northern Ireland.

The word 'fleg' - and indeed 'fleggers' - fittingly describes a section of humanity unconcerned with knowledge, reality or the vagaries of the English language. Like America's tea-baggers they are ruled by instinct, fear and paranoia with a side dish of rampant bigotry and startling ignorance of the world around them.
"Wat de fuck like! The taigs got de fleg took down! Let's wreck de fuckin place! No surrender!"

"De fleg has been took down! Before ye know it there'll be a united Ireland! Attack Short Strand! God Save The Queen!"
