Not everyone lives right next to BRU, THF or BMA... It might surprise you, but airports like CRL, PIK and BVA have catchment areas of themselfs, next to tranfer pax who go the capital...

Granted, but most of the time it is cheaper, and even including the bus ride...

Try an SN 737 in the back, and compare that to FR 737's...

You did forgot to mention the cans are as big a thumb, and contain not by far the amount of drink you expect to get. I would suspect FR does the same though, at slightly higher prices...
