Do you mean some of the largest airports like ORD, MIA, IAH, LAX, DEN, BOS and ATL? You’re right, we’ll never get there...

Agree. If anything they're spotting Avelo and if they go under, they'll snipe their tails for cheap.

I read recently we sold some of our airplanes to Avelo last year...

My memory tells me if WN were to operate out of DFW, it would have to vacate Love Field/DAL. And THAT is not going to happen.
Discuss.

I believe it would be gate for gate. Still not going to happen.

I was under the impression that all expired in 2025 or so.

Good luck to all the re-interviewees this week! Hope we all see each other in a class down the road.

It technically never expires, however, the provision for giving up one gate at DAL for every gate taken at DFW does starting in 2025. So, I would expect a Fall 2024 announcement of intent to serve DFW starting in early 2025. I would expect WN will want something substantial when they do start DFW. Probably 10-15 gates minimum at launch would be my guess.

Plus you’ll see McKinney added around the same time.
