Although I'm interested as a formerly MCI-based flyer, they've also announced other routes and maybe the title should be changed to reflect that, that there are changes starting June 6, although I see that there are some differences in the MCI listings: https://community.southwest.com/t5/B...er/ba-p/119700

It's not even currently loaded in the forward schedule, so it will not likely be coming back soon. STL-MSP/DTW are both loaded, but restarts continued to get pushed back and they don't look like they'll be back this summer. WN seems to have challenges going up against DL out of MSP and DTW. MCI-LGA/DCA/MKE/MSY restarts were also getting pushed back last week and may not see restarts this summer.
