There is a LOT of PWA language around the concept of a "base". Everything from scheduling, to green and white slipping, to bigger issues like the ramifications of opening and closing categories. Ramifications like training, seat locks, displacements, etc., etc.

What's to stop them from opening VB MCO every summer, and closing it every winter? What would happen if they did?

And, of course, there are issues like deadheads, etc.

When I got the survey call, I said this was a no-go. I can see a few ways it could be nice for some pilots. I see so many ways it can go very badly for us. Doesn't Allegiant do VBs? How's that going?
