My 2 cents say FLL may also be a focus city for flight going to the Carribean. It was not long ago US tried to beef up FLL with Carribean routes, but US has scaled back its FLL Carribean operations recently because US can not make it profitable, plus with AA next door at MIA they cannot compete effectively. However, once HP starts running the show on a full scale. I am willing to bet they will get FLL back on track as a gateway city for its Carribean operation. The last couple of years HP has looked into Carribean routes and Hawaii routes (which will be starting service later this year). In reality, HP I could not see HP servicing Carribean markets from its primarily hubs in PHX/LAS it would not have been profitable.
