CLE question
Does anyone have an accurate number of 737 departures out of CLE? I’ve been told by gate agents that there aren’t that many. It has been on the chopping block since before the merger. Just wondering if it will stay around for a while or have a displacement bid and consolidate the hubs. Of course with all of the growth that is promised in this round of rumors, they may need the gates when ORD and IAH are saturated.

I have a feeling the subject of CLE's future is probably being put in front of our NC as we speak.

Don't know why Cleveland has always received favoritism.... For those that are local it has been a good deal..
.It's a special carve out domicile and they were the chosen ones to do all the Hawaii flying for a long period of time...go figure..
I wish them continued good deals... though it would be great to see more of the same offered around the system...MCO, LAS, SEA

The Hawaii stuff was not a good deal for CLE....unless you you consider a 20 hour 5 day trip a good deal... the only reason CLE was given the original 737 Hawaii flying was because CLE was by far the smallest Continental 737 base, so there were far fewer pilots to give ETOPS training....it was the cheapest option for CAL to test the 737 ETOPS flying.
As far as CLE still being a base...I am surprised it is still around for so long after they dehubbed it....I don’t think it is favoritism....I think it is just not a top priority....my guess is as soon as the company hits some financial headwinds, CLE will be gone....being based in CLE I hope it never closes, but unfortunately I think our days are numbered.

Do a google search and you should find CAL made a long term commitment to the City of Cleveland and had them build a terminal and provide support. It isn’t about favoritism, there was a lawsuit.

All of the CLE mainline departures are 737. Around this time about 2 years ago, the crew resources guy said it’s all forced flying simply because of the domicile. Hence, no airbus or 757 like the days of old.
