Here is your big annoucement.....New airline to serve MSP.
New airline coming to MSP, name not yet disclosed | StarTribune.com
Going to be announced on Wednesday. Most likely Spirit or JetBlue since they will be operating out of Terminal 2.

If we do get these jets, they should come without the pilots since it would be an aircraft transaction with Boeing and LUV is hiring. Period.

Timbo - Agree 100%. The only "problem" our management has with 100 seaters is that they cannot outsource them.
I think that if DCI were allowed to fly 100 seaters you would see a billion dollar order ASAP.
Standard management BS.

Not for pilots? Huh. That's funny. I could've sworn they said we were overstaffed.
