Unfortunately for CLE, the economics simply wasn't there (like MEM and CVG for example). I wonder if IAD will meet a similar fate.
I totally agree. Not that that means squat, but none the less, I see Denver as a minor hub for a long time to come. They may shift resources and put more 737s whilst withdrawing 757s and 320s, but I think the airports we serve, the alternate routing on bad snow days in Chicago, the physical location on the map of the United States, and the generally efficient operation all add up to a hub that will be around for a long time to come, but then I never thought we would go bankrupt so what the heck do I know . . .
