Continental Airlines document suggests huge cuts in Cleveland Hopkins flights | cleveland.com



The last paragraph of the article:



While I believe CLE will see cuts and possibly lose hub status sometime after 2012, that may not happen. Also, the article doesn't state that just because the number of departures in each hub, save one, show a decrease, doesn't mean there will be less seats. Airlines are moving away from 50-seat jets due to their economics. Sure, the majors would like to use 70+ seat jets on the feeder side, but that doesn't mean they won't come to mainline in our negotiations at this point. The decrease in departures could mean swapping out two smaller jets for a larger jet, esp. on routes with multiple flights spaced close together.
