No emotions about it Flew a full airplane into Phoenix the other day with ZERO pax going there - all connections that can easily be run over Denver, Dallas or Salt Lake. Like the Wall Street Journal said the other day " there is a merger in the future but nobody wants a Phoenix hub".

Approved by Judge Silvers court?
