Probably because
A) this guy is a troll
B) this is literally the first time that those words have ever been uttered
C) OO would have to begin a new maint base as there isn’t anything close enough to that location to support that operating. (Doubt BNA would be close enough)
C.1) CC wouldn’t even entertain an RFI from AA without it including a 20+ yr contract guarantee that would cover all of the base CAPEX costs as well as the cost & payments of all the planes.
D) SkyWEST
AAG doesn’t hate the voy that much to fork out that cash.

CC is on a mission to concur the (soon to be largest) DEN Denver International. Genius business sense.
Too bad ground ops crash the entire thing because they can’t hire. Because they won’t pay. In this mainline and regionals share the pain.

But in all seriousness, would anyone actually be absolutely stunned if OO did open a Miami base? The operation is growing pretty steadily and if the rumour of 6500-7000 pilots on property by next year has any truth, well they gotta have something planned right?
And before everyone gets too excited, no I am not saying it is Miami...just saying I wouldn't spill my coffee all over myself in shock if we did see a base over that way in the next 6-12 months.

I'm wondering the same thing myself. Who is losing flying, being bought or, going out of business for skywest to grow the list to 7k because, we know they're not going to simply become fat on pilots so we can all start dropping pairings.
