July 1, 2011. I'm sure MKE will be one of the last to remove everything so they can make sure the majority of the YX customer base has a smooth transition.

I did seem to notice that the Midwest Express sign has been removed from the hangar along the airport spur in Milwaukee...Or was I imagining things?

There is a sign on the hanger which was came down something like 2 years ago, but you can still see that it was a sign. I think it used to say Maintenance Facility. Now and then people noticed it and thought it related to a name change, but its innocuous. Is that perhaps what you noticed?

Interestingly, the image of the old MD-80 aircraft was still on the building as of a few days ago.
I wonder how many people would love to have that memorabilia hanging in their rec room.

This morning's press release:
http://finance.yahoo.com/news/Fronti....html?x=0&.v=1
A few items:
--All reservations should be available on Frontier's single reservation system, check in via Frontier's website, or use Frontier's kiosks.
--The E170's should have Stretch by Thanksigiving
--The FF programs are not a single entity yet, so midwestairlines.com is not yet gone:
The alignment of the Frontier EarlyReturns and Midwest Miles programs is expected to be complete later this fall. Until then, Midwest Miles members should continue to log in to their account through the Midwest Airlines website to purchase flights or to service their account. Once a member is logged in they will be redirected to the Frontier Airlines website to book. Once the loyalty programs have been fully integrated, the Midwest Airlines website will be retired and all Midwest Miles members will receive further communication on accessing their membership through FrontierAirlines.com
