AUS-OKC
AUS-MSY
AUS-AMS
AUS-NRTAUS-CDG

Basically local service and then Europe and Asia directs. Plus huge frequency to each hub. AUS-MSY
AUS-CDG/AMS are the only really feasible options of those you list. IMO AUS-DFW/DAL/IAH/MSY/OKC just isnt going to happen. While AUS gets more piint to point service, it's to other focus cities. It's not going to compete on already flooded routes to Dallas and Houston. Cities that have hubs in both for 3 major airlines, one with hubs in both cities.
