DTW A220 base
 

I know the company is talking about opening another A220 base. DTW was an original thought. Do we think they’ll open a base it seems we have a lot of 220 flying in DTW?

very doubtful.

Pick whatever base makes the least sense and that they haven't mentioned at all as a possibility. My money is on BOS... :D

Not doubtful at all as the 717 will be relegated to ATL-only in the next few years just as the MadDogs have been for their last few years. The 220 will partially fill the DTW 717 void.

But I don't think DTW220 is next. Not needed yet. A year or two perhaps, after a west coast base.

BS said next base was either LAX or SEA...later on in the same video he said definitively it was SEA....I think he let the cat out of the bag there.

Network does change their mind fairly often so time will tell what actually comes out on the AE.

eventually, but not any time soon, there is much more flying out of Seattle to support that than dtw
When the 220-300 really gets up and rolling I might expect dtw to open around then, right now I think they do dtw,Iah,Aus,jfk,lga,bos,ewr out of dtw.
Sometimes base decision isn’t all about flights though, it’s about how they make it work with network and rotation construction too, so you never know

they just said today they plan to open MSP 717 next bid

It's always the next bid for something. Did they say when? March of 2020?

^^^. That will change next week...

Look to see where the A220 lays over a lot - that will likely be the next base. That's what happened before the 737 bases like DTW and MSP showed up.
