That one hurts. Calgary offers limited flights a day to D.C., none of which are direct. Most require two stops and are an all day trip. Calgary having to go through hubs for trips almost everywhere makes travel tough.
I think a reasonable response to the RFP would be to pay Westjet or AC to fly direct daily to IAD. I suspect that would only cost $1-2 MM per year, which is a drop in the bucket for how much total spend this RFP needs to have any shot at winning.
