Which Spirit Base Do You Want?
 

Oops

The question is: What new bases will B6 looking to create after expansion in ADDITION to the NK bases?

I’m thinking SLC.

I was thinking MYR….:D Which has more daily flights??

It’ll be less than 50 miles from ocean…

Great Salt Lake is salt water too…

But it is a piker compared to the Dead Sea…

I think SLC is very unlikely. I think SFO has a chance. Joanna has mentioned LAS growth and I heard her say potentially more PHX flying but not sure whether that meant a potential focus city. I don’t think anything else out west is likely until the Alaska merger.

LAS would be great.

Why SFO? It’s expensive to operate out of there and you have CA taxes as well as their labor laws. Besides, you already have LAX, for CA and NK has a large base in LAS. They are the second biggest carrier there after SWA.

Even PDX would be better - at least once they’ve finished their terminal expansion. You could cover NorCal flying from PDX fairly easily.

They like to have crew bases on both ends of Mint flights when possible to minimize delays/cancellations.
