I was very surprised to have seen this on the local CLE news last week. MDW was my preferred Chicago destination with CO, I wish CO would reconsider this as MDW is very easy to get in/out of for my day trips to CHI.

After hearing this at first I had to wonder is this tied to any possible merger deals in the future considering its ORD being saved and the fact that CO did not cut duplicate airline routes to the NYC area to LGA or JFK since EWR is their hub. If fuel is the reason then lets cut at least one of those airports, "whats good for the goose is good for the gander" IMHO (not that I want any routes like these to be cut but why not consider those routes also?).
