I doubt MIA is going anywhere for AA. MIA has a slightly higher population than ATL. Its obviously not as well suited for domestic connections, but it's still the best strategic hub for much of Latin America. They may face some more pressure from DL/LA but if they decide to de-hub MIA because they lost a partner carrier, then DP should be fired before the ink dries on that memo.
