To not take a major airline pilot's caution in this venue is as dumb as believing you know more than your physician or my clients know more than I. I would not ride that tube until a couple years of flawless performance. Any airline that has less invested in fleet that's 2 planes more than 20 yrs old than a moderate retirement portfolio and has not flown a single mile is suspect.

I've twice been re routed on major carriers to the Bahamas when Miami was shut down for storms...it was a big pita but not life threatening. I don't want to be in such a situation tuation with a fledgling airline
