If not look at your other options.
How can you ugly up the forum with that cubs thingy and not expect me to cancel it out with my White Sox stuff? We have to try to keep it nice around here.

Clark's lover is a gay SWA FA. Has to be. I've never seen anyone so gaga over saving $15 to go from BHM to STL.

The only thing for sure it that when the Cubs are projected to be bottom dwellers, they do good and make the playoffs. When they are projected to "win it all," they stink up the joint.

You guys might have a chance this year.

Somehow I don't think very many of those "300+" flights are going to be between any of the Delta hubs or from places where most Delta pilots commute from to the hubs. But thanks for trying..... Besides, doesn't Airtran already operate around 280 flights out of ATL now, so SWA is really only adding 20-30 more flights.

Read what you just wrote. Try and find some places DL and friends doesn't already fly out of ATL... Traverse city maybe?


FL used to operate over 300 flights but reduced them...
