No, I know they are there, but UAL hubs are located in much more dense or heavily business traveled locations, except for Denver, which is more of a central connector hub. Orlando traffic is primarily family tourism, and a lot of those 2.2 million living don't have to work anymore, they just travel to see their grand kids or to get to their summer home.

UAL will still have trips into and out of MCO if only for reward travel. That being said the cost to open a MCO base would be offset by the savings in hotels I bet. I think a FL base will happen shortly after the amendable contract is solidified.

And you’ll receive your $50,000,000.00 in cash from the Nigerian prince you helped set free at that time too! It’s a sure thing....

As soon as we get the DC-10 back on property PANC is a sure bet! But I forgot, there’s no money in cargo.
