Dont forget about ANC....I'll bet the Delta pilots will be stepping over each other to get a piece of that location.

Agreeing on this point. Mem will be gone, or at least turned into a rj base. CVG eliminated also, leaving ALT, DTW, MSP ( wish the DFW base was still around). But who knows. The mgt teams have already done a sterling job running the two airlines.........

Haven't heard any mention of this, but there could easily be enough assets available to re-open the DFW base. Might make sense, and the additional competition with AA might appease the folks that claim it is anti-competitive. I know there are a lot of DAL and NWA guys that would love that option.

ATL or NYC would be fine by me...Live in the ATL now or could move home to the Boston Area....Either way Wonder what they would offer guys based in MEM for base choices if they close it down.

Is a fence only for a/c, or is it for base as well? Let's say all the NWA west coaster wants to go to LAX, what's to stop them from bumping all DL LAXer out of their bases?

Thanks.

Hi!

Somebody else posted that CVG would stay, as a concession to the Politicians.

A provision that says no bumping, only openings.
