What is so great is service in Y has been so inexpensive yet the route has been a dumping ground for using premium mileage (and getting them off AS’ books) and people paying regular price for F. I think it is about time to revisit MSY and other cities that SEA flyers can only get to using AA connections.
DUT is extremely unlikely. Did you mean another place? Or do you have a scoop?
