If you haven't been to STL lately, though, it's certainly an airport that has plenty of unoccupied gates...
Delta will be doing above and below the wing stuff.

AS used AA at DCA for a time... as I recall, from when AS moved from Terminal A to Terminal B/C in ~2004, until some time in about 2006, when AS started staffing DCA in house.

AS used to use AA at ORD also. AA still does the below the wing stuff.

AS needs to talk to Starbucks. At least they are a Seattle based company, have an espresso machine and offers free wifi

I thought we discovered AS doesn't like dealing with Seattle-based companies.

Dang, was kinda hoping for a nonstop SEA-PHL, since I hate US with a passion, but oh well...I might look into buying a ticket for the inaugural SEA-STL with those fares, since I have a friend in STL area. Thanks for the heads up. ^

Any chance of a nonstop SEA-RDU sometime in the near future?

My son and I flew F to ORD last Sunday, and we were both guessing as to what cities AS might add. I guessed STL or MEM.

And now I've got a ticket to STL five days later. One of the few mid-con routes where you can buy a Hot Deal and use your comp Gold upgrade to move into F.

Nice....^
