It wouldn’t make sense to build Phl when that’s piedmont’s main hub and they opened it wayyyyy before we did.
Looking at the flying PDT does, it seems that 50 seat vs the 2-class a/c aircraft is out of balance. I see us picking up more routes in the long run from PDT while They back fill AA 50 seat flying in other bases on the east coast. I too think PHL will see some growth, but we need those remaining 700s and 900s come online first. This is my speculation.
