But doesn't CO still have a massive maintenance facility in DEN? I seem to recall what appeared to be a huge hangar w/ their logo on it... I mean, there was a time when they operated 225+ flights a day there, they had to have a service facility...</font>
At least as of last summer, I think they still had maintenance bases at HOU (I don't mean IAH, although they probably have one there too), LAX, and HNL. None of these airports have a significant amount of flights these days (none at HOU) but it's probably expensive to re-locate a maintenance base. Closing them is another matter if they have more than they need.
