That pretty well sums up how the rest of the country views the entire state.

Keep in mind these numbers will start to rapidly change once all the classes start running in July.

Yes. It will probably look like this on every vacancy if

MCO FO-30
MCO CA-15

56 new hires a month and 20 upgrades a month, might just be more than MCO. If say BWI opens before the end of the year.

AA is adding 100 flights a day out of DFW with the new E gates. Be nice to see some growth in DFW.

NK going from @18 departures a day in the winter to @ 33 for the summer. Be nice to see that go to 50 plus.

It's the satellite gates, I'm sure you are correct, tying into smaller markets. Still AA.

threat to Spirit ? DFW to Little Rock ?



I am kind of amused and pleased to see Spirit do well at DFW when other airlines could not.


Ideally this remains a pilot base forever....

American will not be a threat to Spirit. Well over $30 BILLION in debt with only ~$4. billion in cash and one of the lowest margins in the industry; not an immediate problem. They could decide to undercut our pricing at the expense of their meager margins, but that should make their investors very unhappy. Southwest is the company that could take the battle to us if they choose to...
