I really hope YLW returns as a year-round destination.

JFK, MCI, and STL to PVR (and MCI-CUN) are also quite interesting; besides the DAL and LGA flights that were briefly around because AS inherited assets from VX it didn't have a logical use for, are these the first AS flights from east of the Rockies to a destination that is not US west of the Rockies?

Yes. But AS also flew (briefly) DAL-DCA as a legacy route from VX.
