  1. Delta Not between MCO and TPA but yes - between TPA and MCO
  2. Eastern Yes, with 6 daily flights
  3. Northwest Yes, with 2 daily flights
  4. Ozark Yes, with 1 daily flight
  5. Pan Am No flights in either direction
  6. Republic Yes, with 3 daily flights
  7. TWA No flights in either direction
  8. United Yes, with 1 daily flight, but none between TPA and MCO

So, we're missing two airlines on the MCO-TPA run - both of them post deregulation carriers...
