I didn't think about the holidays, but it's possible (regardless of WN/FL) that they squeeze in a handful or two of flights over that peak. But other than that, even if WN/FL cuts way back on MKE
and fuel prices siide, the tight fleet makes it very difficult for them to restore until the dead of winter, which is the wrong time.
Of course it's good to remember those are optimistic scenarios...especially if fuel doesn't drop much further, there are probably more cuts coming.
