Couldn’t a crew just deadhead out after a plane is delivered for maintenance without needing a base? I get the commitment to the city for gates but the crew base seems odd at this point being that we have other cities in the system with many times the flights and not even a rumor of a base. Florida is the exception. That rumor will never die.
