I remember a number of years ago there was discussion of Cleveland starting nonstop service to Kansas City on Southwest. Was there every any realistic traction to that?
Jump to postDelta is going all mainline (2x A320, 2x B717) on CLE MSP this summer and aggressively price matching/undercutting Frontier and Sun Country. With this retaliatory move by Delta, could we see Delta responding to Frontier entering CLE-SLC by restoring their CLE-SLC route? I know the Frontier flight i...

WN CLE DEN is 2.0 in Jun 2024. Has WN ever flown CLE-DAL or HOU? Those are glaring holes in the network. Also, can't believe that LAS,PHX or MCO can't be flown daily. Not sure about HOU, but WN did at one time fly non-daily service to DAL. I think it was a Sunday afternoon flight, though it may hav...
Jump to postSome ideas for more seasonal leisure routes on United from CLE: San Diego, San Juan, St. Thomas, Montego Bay, Fort Walton Beach. I would love to see some more UA adds at CLE.

Jump to postI was at CLE Tuesday night around 11pm. There was one flight left on the departure board--AA1554 to DFW, orig sch'd for 130pm departure---and the board had it delayed 23.5 hours to 100pm Wed departure. I checked later and the Wednesday 130 departure left on time, but the Tues 130 flight hadn't left...
Jump to postDid UA also fly to Toledo from CLE? I remember Continental flew there during their hub years; I had a friend who skiplagged once to get to Cleveland from Toledo in the mid 2000's because he didn't want to drive, and he didn't want to pay the absurd cost for just the TOL-CLE segment (of course this ...

Jump to postThings are way to early to have detailed plans of a station for CLE. Also, the lakefront plan under discussion envisions a multi-modal station housing Amtrak, RTA and possibly Greyhound.

Jump to postI did not realize that DAL and HOU are not served. Also surprised that LAS is not at least daily with all of the connections it provides.

Totally random, but I love the piano that is at the airport under Terminal 1. How long has that been there? It's a beautiful instrument and was in-tune! I wish my home airport had a public piano.

At least whatever airline moves in will have a nice modern terminal to use. Did they ever open an eatery/store pre or post security there? The last time I was there, they still only had a temporary stand pre-security where you could buy a limited amount of items.

Jump to postThis caught my off guard, but I noticed that DL is flying one mainline (B712) a day from DTW to CMH. That's a big upgrade from the flights that can range from a CRJ to E75. It's about time though to finally getting mainline service from DTW. CLE, IND and PIT have been getting mainline from DTW for ...
Jump to postCLE can probably support nonstop service out of AUS on AA, UA, WN, or NK with CLE being the #1 domestic market in the contiguous U.S. without nonstop service out of AUS by 2022 PDEW's.
