Ok, I guess I misunderstood your comment about us having an ANC MD base? Didn't understand the relevance..

I agree that everyone hates those pairings BUT the boxes still have to be flown to SDF, right? So does it matter if the trips start in anc versus sdf? They'd still need out and backs in order to bring it all to the world port, wouldn't they?
Unless you think ANC might close and the freight will go straight to SDF? Then all the bets would be off.
This is me hoping 74 stays away from SDF..
