It's going to be flying out of DTW by then (if it hasn't already started) and in addition to that, it seems like the initial signs of 717 drawdown from non-ATL bases have appeared. Something will fill that void but that's more of 2-5 year plan I'd imagine.
But, if the 717s might be gone in five years, then they'll certainly be relegated to ATL-only just as the 88s are, perhaps only 3-5 years from now.
Crew Resources said a base out west possibly on the Q4 AE.
