When we opened the 73N category in SEA on the last AE, it was "new" because previously we only had a A330 and 7ER in SEA, and therefore it was available for anyone to bid.
Just to add to the rumor mill, did anyone else catch that reference in the latest Flt Ops Weekly Update about how marketing is looking at west coast 717 flying and "we will explore our options of 717 West Coast categories"?
SLC 717 sounds good to me..who do I call to make it happen?
I would love a SLC 717 category, but I doubt that will happen. The only thing that could possibly drive them to putting one in SLC is the lack of gate space in LAX and SEA.
Be nice to see an LAX 777 category and a 717 west coast category in 2015.
