XNA = Northwest Arkansas Regional airport. It''s located near Fayetteville. It was built primarily to service Bentonville, the home of WallyWorld World HQ.

IIRC, Tyson Chicken's HQ is there (NW Arkansas) as well. And maybe one other large company whose name escapes me?

Correct - Tyson Foods and JB Hunt (very large trucking firm).
Only problem for the Wal-Mart pax - it will be that much more difficult for them to attain Plat or EXP when they don''t connect - not too many miles XNA-LAX nonstop. Of course, many of these pax will connect to Asia from LAX.
Wal-Mart alrady has one of the largest Corporate Flight Departments in the US. From Learjets to the Global Express. This flight should help bring in vendors to Wal-Mart connecting from Asia, and South America via LAX on AA.
