It made absolutely no sense. Detroit was already the backup OCC during hurricanes so you already had ample space for all of this.

Even if you needed more, there is plenty of cheap office space in and around Detroit.

The only thing I can think of is, given the, apparent, success of BWI, they see no reason BNA isn’t going to blow up and compete with WN there.

Time will tell. As of current day BNA is still very minimal for us.

OCC doesn’t even have to be anywhere we fly. It’s a bunch of folks in an office with computers and phones. They just made it sound like it was bc of wx. Obviously other factors at play.

BNA is about 7 million potential originating customers short of competing with BWI. Let's get real with the BNA stuff. Office jobs have nothing to do with 'hubs'.
