I could go on, but these are all non-hub to non-hub routings. You would think if multiple daily JAX-BNA nonstops exist, there might be a nonstop from BNA to BOS. Apparently, there is not enough demand for a non-stop and I find it curious.
Southwest has been on most of those routes for quite some time now with the exception of LGA, and in that case, AA still has a large operation at LGA to make that work and there's enough O&D traffic. If anything, Southwest has a quasi-focus city in BNA where they can flow traffic over it.
As Southwest grows BOS, they are the best bet for a return to BOS-BNA.
