I would sure take WN on a flt this short on a 737 vs UA's RJ's. The analyst tells it like it is.
Two things, one the article is wrong. DL is leasing a gate from WN, not UA. See Dallas Morning News articles.

The other, WN doesn't fly to IAH, so if you need to go from Central Dallas to North Houston it is going to be on UA. Driving from north Houston to south Houston is a real PITA. Heck, even CO use to fly from IAH to Ellington Airport in South Houston.
