FDX delta de hubs MEM

I knew it was a matter of time once I got the stupid credit card.

Don't know what it'll mean for accepted fares. Hopefully someone is looking at a virtual domicile in flt ops.

You don't want to live in or around that god-awful city and you wonder why Delta is leaving it?

At least the city/county spent big bucks on that awesome parking garage...so they got that going for them.

Now is the time that everybody takes the scheduled deadheads. I am sure we would get the accepted fares fixed or virtual basing. Just a thought.

This is the only way it'll get fixed. But with this crew force, it won't happen.

My prediction: Delta moves out, Southwest moves in.
Stand by for $29 accepted fares.

Yup.

From the article:
"Commissioner Terry Roland, “We need to get a lower price airline in here anyway."

Actually SWA doesn't give us great deals through Corp travel. Of course that could change if they move into MEM. A friend of mine who flies for them says they plan on it after they work out their international system they've obtained through Air Tran.

Maybe, it's just me but I think deadheading will be very painful if they are what the majority of accepted fares will be base on.
