I will continue to maintain that CO has a master plan to redevelop a Western hub, i.e. DEN.
It will quite a ballsy move if they do it in this economy, but I think they have the arrogance to convince themselves that they can pull it off. I sure hope they do...
It is not a conincidence that they just severed ties w/ HP and F9. Gordo made it clear that they believe "
Continental can stand alone." Everything in the corporate world is said for a reason.
I'm quite confident that we're going to see a lot of CO metal out West soon... although, it might be those little ones w/ no FC
