C'mon...Does anyone on this board truly believe that either of these airlines want to enter MKE? As a consumer I welcome it, bring them in!!!
From an infrastructure standpoint, does MKE have the space to add these? Especially with the supposed expansion plans of F9 and FL...Maybe there will be, if WN continues to reduce flights.
Secondly, has the economy recovered enough for these two airlines to take the risk and enter possibly the most competitive market in the nation?
Hoss and Blue...Thanks for the inside look into yesterday's presentation...Ever since these two airlines got together and started integrating equipment I have been a big supporter and think that both of them were solid airlines that will complement each other really well...I look forward to seeing the change over the coming years.
