More bases are going to happen here at some point in the next few years. It’s pretty much inevitable.
My comment was due to LAX base opening being the most persistent and long lived rumor at my current/Cyio's past airline, hence the dejavu reading about the same here.
Is there a long term plan in ORD? The T5 expansion is presumably to move more airlines there as T2 is replaced with the new international terminal. Any plans for Spirit to move to T5?
