MCO
CVG
PDX
LAX
If you lengthen out that timeline just a little bit you'd pick up

ORD
SFO
SEA
MSY
HOU

BOS

MCO was the Delta Express cancer in our contract. While I never like to see lives disrupted, I was glad to see that operation go away. The Northsiders have had their fair share of base closures as well, with ANC closed recently and BOS, JFK, and HNL shut down.
