TUL
SFO
Key West

maybe we get some A321 with the long range down to Buenos Aires, Santiago, or São Paulo.

If you are going to get 321 NEO XRs why not KOA, OGG, HNL, and ITO out of LAS, LAX, PHX, SFO, PDX, and SEA?

Maybe MEM will make the cut. It’s a ghost town

San Antonio-we used to do, but I would think we would do very well there.

I would love Anchorage. We could definitely snag customers from Alaska Airlines...seems like Southwest is already beating Alaska up on the west cost/Hawaii and we can go in for some more punches.

that would be wild. I’d love to give that a shot.

Quito- yeah! Why not...jet blue does it out of FLL so can we.

no real opinion, jungle flying is jungle flying to me. As long as it makes money

lubbock-ehh probably not big enough but then again some other small cities we serve surprises me.

approaching 300,000 people and the university is close to 40,000. LBB-IAH could be good. DFW MIGHT read too short of a flight but Southwest was doing love out of there for a while. Maybe still? Also had a Vegas flight for a while IIRC and DEN

Salt Lake City- the airport is about to finish expansion. I think we would give a whack at it once it’s complete.

I have been hearing this one a lot and it’s probably the most sensible of all that you mentioned.

maybe more tropical destinations because that is where everyone is flocking to... Liberia, Costa Rica.... Port of Spain, Cozumel???

Will need 318s with 321 brakes for Key Weird.

I was just there and saw Delta and American 319's there. I checked their loads because I was jumpseating out, and they were both full. I ended up on Republic to EWR.

yeah 319’s and 737-7’s do it routinely

Oh I love mindless rumors.

1. Management said a couple town-halls ago that they definitely want to see Anchorage, as they see it as a high-yield seasonal route with high fares.

2. LAX is a MX base and has more flying than ORD, DFW, DTW, BWI, ACY, EWR, or ATL. In fact, IIRC the only three cities we do more departures per day out of (this July) are FLL, MCO, and LAS— and a big percentage of LAS flying is to support LAX. I heard from a good source that NK was considering a LAX crew base pre-covid, not BWI. I would bet that ANY additional gates in LAX would mean a crew base. I’m sure it’s expensive but so is X hotel rooms a night.

3. Apparently someone in the Allegiant training department is telling people there that ALGT has already bought spirit but can’t spill the beans because of the covid money :rolleyes:

just some ideas :D

I think it’s to late to announce Anchorage this year. I bet we see it for next summer though.

GEG - Spokane
SLC - Salt lake

I noticed we don’t fly to JAX anymore. Kinda bummed when a new city doesn’t workout for us. I wonder if Burbank is next...Really bad loads lately it seems like and only flying twice a week.

ISP
SLC
Cozumel

Are my wishlist...
