I may be wrong, but I thought Tunica and Gulfport did some kind of subsidy and/or guaranteed revenue agreement with AirTran. I bet the wonderful economy has decimated the "excess" funds used for subsidies in these cities.

Think I mentioned this a while ago when the MKE and IND flight cuts were posted on here.
