And you can court AA/DL all you want; neither of them is going to establish a hub at IAD at this point.
If the financial resources have changed, why not fix a hub that is in far more need of repair than IAH? I'll tell you the reason - COdbaUA is going to bleed the PMUA resources dry in order to benefit PMCO resources.
Unless you're going to tell me that IAH is in worse shape than IAD, what other reason can there really be?

Right, I'll be sure to catch my next TATL nonstop out of DCA.
