Apparently in 12/2019 they ran an in-depth analysis on BWI and it didn’t save enough money to justify creating a crew base. But it was the hottest rumor by far. I bet we see some mew bases in the next 4 years but no idea what

I'd love to see the "savings" and "costs" of any crew base. As an airline, there are lots of overnights in other bases. Now, I think lots of that is justifiable on gate usage, flight timing and other grounds, but its hard to think that if we're willing to incur those costs, that somehow we are saving anything elsewhere.

Yep...as most understand, it was going to happen last Fall. Now we have a couple dozen planes in long term...

For the naysayers, make no mistake, there will be another base. Real estate is everything.

People have to actually be in class before any vacancy bids are put out. Simmer down.
