Jump to postJust pulled IND O&D demand for Q3 2022 (latest available) sorted by total O/D and ranked by each carrier's largest O&D from IND. Interesting to see that DEN now is almost neck and neck for MCO in the summer in terms of O&D demand to a single airport at 570 (DEN) versus 600 (MCO). https:...
Jump to postThe USDOT released full domestic T100 onboard passenger data through Dec 2022 that I just used to calculate Southwest's load factors (LF) by station, route, and month for all of 2022 (as well as Q3 2022 yield data): https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1qkSh1WvpxiZ85RMl97ZQOgVVauJKdG465fSCOEnvg2c/...

Jump to postI’d like to echo a couple of comments posted earlier about AA service to ROA. Virginia does in fact extend beyond the Henrico County line westward.

Jump to postThe other ROC guys may know more, but my impression is that Frontier was probably impacted by Spirit's arrival and a competing daily flight to MCO.

That’s on the Southwest thread. PHX and DAL are #1 and 2 through Vegas. PHX is by far their #1 destination beyond the hubs. Pretty much mirrors what I’ve experienced. #1 through DEN on WN is...MSP.
