Didn't Pinnacle's HQ recently just move to MSP? I know that was a pretty extreme example... but anything can happen.

You guys all complained about Frontier and it's acquisition non- stop. No Frontier, no 190s, no Denver, no surprise you're complaining again about a base closure. I expect news about their sale soon as well. Good luck to all the great folks I met there.
