Having trouble's with the link, but the article states that WN will purchase 14 take off and landing slot's for a total of 7 flights. No news on routing and it's subject to the BK judge. Bid is at 7.5M
I think that it's just another sign of Gary's imprint. There is a new thinking that big congested airports are not all that bad. And I believe that you are correct that all or most will go to MDW.I would bet that if they are successful in purchasing from the court, that all 7 flights will be to MDW.
Sounds like Gary's going down the same path as others..... skid row!I think that it's just another sign of Gary's imprint. There is a new thinking that big congested airports are not all that bad. And I believe that you are correct that all or most will go to MDW.
What about 3 to MDW and the remaining 4 split between BWI/IAD and PVD/MHT?I would bet that if they are successful in purchasing from the court, that all 7 flights will be to MDW.
If you are thinking of competeing with USAir and Delta on the shuttle routes, it's gonna take mote than 2 round trips a day to impact that market. I say let's trust the company to do their usual excellent job. I "ll do my part by doing my usual excellent job!What about 3 to MDW and the remaining 4 split between BWI/IAD and PVD/MHT?

Service begins June 28, 2009 with 5 daily LGA-MDW roundtrips and 3 LGA-BWI roundtrips for a total of 8 roundtrips per day.
Traditional carriers operate hub-and-spoke networks where 60% of passengers hop on connecting flights to get to their final destinations. Adding nonstops to such a network siphons off traffic from connecting flights and hurts the economic advantages of the hub. Southwest doesn't have that problem. About 80% of its passengers get off at each stop
