With the lack of 35X, the DCA hub is now fully banked with 6 large banks:
8:00 AM Southern Flights
10:00 AM - Northern Flights
2:00 PM - Southern Flights
3:00 PM - Northern Flights
8:00 PM - Southern Flights
10:00 PM - Northern Flights

Just thought y'all would find this interesting!
I've done a bunch of connections through DCA from MIA rather than CLT. In fact for over 5 months other than a reroute I haven't connected through CLT. I fly 2-4 times a week with many destinations that would have CLT as a primary connecting hub. Definitely notice the difference in the ACs.
