High-income area for sure, but we're pretty low on population relative to other cities with an SC. Even on a good day, we get 6-7x ATL, 3-4x DTW, and 2-3x MSP, with 1x daily to RDU/CLE/CVG. I just don't see the math being in DL's favor, even with our relatively high fares/yield. If nothing else, relative to the size of the station, I'll take the fact that we have pretty solid DL mainline above-wing staff and call it a day.
Trying to think where in BDL there would even be space for a club. Nothing comes to mind even if the other criteria worked out.
