WISN TV's late news interviewed Jay Sorensen, identified as an airline industry analyst and "former Midwest Airlines executive," who said "I don't see the opportunity for success that Republic management sees, as far as their ability in being able to turn around "these two troubled franchises...Midwest and Frontier."

He goes on to say that he does not rule out JetBlue or Spirit moving in to serve MKE.

WTMJ TV interviewed Ben Mutzabaugh, who said "Having two hubs like this makes it a very strong carrier and able to compete with the likes of AirTran, Alaska Air, and possibly even Southwest."

It's amazing how their opinions can differ so.
