Make no mistake, they WILL have to branch out to grow in the coming years due to the gate cap at DAL, but no one knows where yet.
Another option is to remove the gate cap at DAL. If I remember correctly there used to be 35 gates Dallas - Fort Worth is a big enough metropolitan area to support to airports.
