SK has stated several times that his goal is to drive AA out of ORD.

I’m by no means a Blue Kool Aide drinker, but if you look at DEN the last few years United has grown beyond Term B, sprawled across Term A and I’ve been seeing UA flights now in Term C which has historically been the sole property of SWA. F9 has been relegated to hard stands now when they used to pretty much own the south side of A. It’s been the most profitable hub for years, and there’s no signs of slowing down the expansion there. Between our massive training center in DEN (that keeps growing) and the non-stop expansion, who do you think has more political pull in DEN, UA or SWA?
