I'm Not saying ISP absolutely won't happen (I'm sure if the incentives, price, and revenue guarantees were right, NK would open Hicksville, KY), I just think Islip doesn't follow Spirit's latest expansion model of operating to primary airports in large markets.[/QUOTE]

Long Island has a population of about 3 million, which is a pretty large market.... and Long Islanders mostly hate having to deal with JFK and LGA. Talking to guys that used to go to ISP, they all said the flights were mostly full. Combine that with SWA pulling half their flights out of ISP over the past couple of years, it could be worth another shot.
