Maybe MKE-PDX seasonally like May to early September but that is it.
Delta actually had very good loads on MKE-SLC. Unfortunately, the yields were terrible because most of the traffic on the route was connecting passengers.

I'd also like to see MKE-PDX. The route might be viable year-round if Republic flies it with an E170 during the winter months.
