This! Not to mention quite a few people from Philly vacation in Virginia Beach. I’ll take the Amtrak for that short of a distance. Avoid the traffic and the TSA. If I’m getting in a plane I would rather it just go to MIA or SJU rather than Virginia Beach (lol) That's a 7 hour Amtrak ride. Trip is m...
Jump to postGood points regarding stl and charter services. I bet the answer is both. WN dropped BDL, which creates room for an HVN flight immediately. Later down the line they can also fly charters
Jump to postPHL-ORF is an *easy* drive? In what world? Either deal with the awful I-95 corridor through DC/Balt/Richmond or take Route 1/13 and sit at 500 traffic signals. This is exactly the kind of distance that if the costs are right, it could do well with VFR. This! Not to mention quite a few people from P...
Jump to postAre they just attempting to be a thorn in the foot for AA? Phx, PHL, and now DFW
Jump to postAre these rumors coming from employees/airports or are they just from Enilria’s speculative post I think we may be taking a bit of a jump to say that HVN-STL summer flights were launched with the exclusive purpose of potentially flying for Apple winter vacations routes that are already sold commerc...
Jump to postIf that rumor is true I will be curious where they fly. Apple is selling Frontier flights for STL-CUN/PUJ thru February 2025 already. Oh I didn't know that, it might be for Vacation Express or someone else then. That's why they're doing HVN-STL. Could also pick up STL-PVR. Apple flew that and STL-H...
Jump to postUpon looking at flystl.com it appears that nobody has updated the airline and routes section or map for over a year now. There is no other major or minor airport that does this. Makes them look like they aren't on top of things. I think they have a new media manager. The social media might honestly...

Still hoping LAX shows back up
They say this but struggle in doing it. They said they wanted to do this in STL back when they were adding a bunch of flights and look how that panned out
Jump to postJust when I thought the social media couldn’t get worse, they tagged the wrong page for avelo air on twitter
Jump to postWN is starting Burbank daily in June and Florida is pretty covered. So that probably rules those out. I thought they might try RDU even though WN already flies there. They should pick up some of the Hartford traffic WN left behind by not bringing BDL back. If WN now decides to bring back BDL it cou...

I would have thought avelo would open stl with Burbank or Florida. Can’t imagine there is too much demand between stl and New Haven Ct
Jump to postNobody here in LA really even knew what B6 was apart from the palos verdes crowd who used to drive to LGB. Now at lax, they were charging bottom barrel fares as the umteenth airline flying within the west and to the sunspots. Why would they continue that, it was foolish and even NK has better brand ...
Jump to postAA isn’t bad. F9 was charging 250 for Cancun when I went. Aa was at 750 one way. At that price the plane is just fine. Also side note, all of these Mexican tourist cities are actually pretty fun destinations if stay in the city at say the renaissance cancun marina instead of the party hotel strip. W...

The only way that MCI/KCI grow with passenger count, I believe, is for SWA to connect more passengers and add more non stop destinations. The new terminal is a beauty for connecting traffic and passengers. Beats connecting throu DIA or STL hands down WN updated their city fact sheets and it’s very ...
Jump to postYup, going from drought to blizzard to drought to atmospheric river is not normal weather. Sure, the drought is over, but so many extremes are not normal

I'm aware of the legalities, but I've also always wanted to try this. Most likely I'll achieve it one day by riding the iron ore train across the Sahara.

Jump to postGrocery stores already do this. Compare the price of the Walmart in a tourist town like Branson or Cabo San Lucas to a random walmart in Los Angeles. Might not be hourly surge pricing but they definitely gouge in towns were there is no other option

Jump to postI wonder if part of the motivation for some of these newer flights was to block a potential breeze or Avelo entrance. Particularly BUR, SFO, and some of the eastern beach cities like ORF and pbi

That's exactly what I thought.
What is the Sun Country engagement with the MSP market in all of this? Is there regular, active radio, TV, web browser, etc etc advertising? Email blasts to past customers? Make a social media post and hope people take note these cities are an option for booking? Rely on someone doing a Google flig...
Jump to postLmao I'm sure iCarly would love to open up a new hub in STL and MCI. He already has JFK now too. Next, he'll also open up a travel agency in those cities that will happen to have majority online sales. Then, he will write up a contract that gives him exclusive first rights to sell the tickets.
