Not necessarily - Pittsburgh is still a large city. People travel. They would be the only n/s to Europe thus getting business far and beyond Bayer. LH seems ot use awfully large planes on T/A routes - what about a 767? Seems like a more moderate way to start. Not to mention, the PIT hub isn't eliminated. With 229 daily flights there would still be available US connections. I could see people in cities like BNA (which is gaining PIT flights believe or not) prefering to connect to LH in PIT vs. US or LH in PHL. PIT is just a better hub.
