DAB New Air Service Announcement 9/12

evank516 · Tue Sep 11, 2018 7:33 pm

Looks like new air service is in the cards for DAB. Press event is at 2:30 PM Eastern Time. This is the second new air service announcement for them in a rather short period of time with B6 announcing JFK-DAB in February of 2015. Looks like the service would begin in 2019.

I wouldn’t consider 3.5 years to be a “rather short period of time.”

I can only think of Elite, Sun Country, Frontier, or Allegiant. It's too late for domestic adds for NK and DL for sure.

DAB-ISP/PWM for elite. DAB-MSP for Sun Country. DAB-ISP, CLE, PHL, IND, STL, RDU, MSP, PVD are all possible for Frontier. Allegiant could go wherever in their network of small airports that nobody would think to fly out of on Tuesdays at 2pm.

For DAB who before jetBlue hadn't had any new air service announcments since 2007, it's a short period of time.

Aer Lingus has an announcement tomorrow. DAB has one tomorrow.... Soooo....

Okay even I can't pretend to put those to together. But congrats in advance fro whatever it is.

Maybe Silver to FLL and the Bahamas? With B6 there it may be beneficial to provide codeshare links to their FLL network.

Yes there was. I suppose it could be them too.

N292UX · Tue Sep 11, 2018 7:53 pm

UA to either IAH, IAD, or ORD?

Sunwing is a possible and Sun Country is possible as well.

But my bet is on Silver Airways

727LOVER · Tue Sep 11, 2018 7:54 pm

Could be existing airline...DL to LGA...B6 to BOS

Unless DL announces LGA since B6 seems to be managing JFK-DAB without issue. This is the normal time of year for new air service announcements at DAB so they can launch around the time of the Daytona 500. The A220-100 might be a good fit for that type of route and aren't deliveries expected to begin next year with one of the bases to be New York?

Or maybe B6 is announcing a second JFK flight.

Both of those seem possible. AA to DCA, DFW, or PHL seems possible too.

BWIAirport · Tue Sep 11, 2018 7:58 pm

Beginning in 2019 (likely spring or summer) would indicate it isn't a dedicated vacation route (Mid-Atlantic/New England), or the route would begin in the winter. I like N292UX's post about UA into Texas. Along those lines, could be AA to DFW. Could even just be AA to MIA.

flymco753 · Tue Sep 11, 2018 8:00 pm

DL could do LGA/BOS/MSP-DAB if that's the case. Surprised they dont do MSP-SRQ.

Not necessarily. DAB traffic picks up in February and lasts most of Spring into early Summer. Most of the time new airlines start routes in February nearly coinciding with the Daytona 500. Now would be the time to announce that. There's also some bad blood between DAB and UA so I doubt it's them.

Good for DAB!

Within the last year or two, DAB put out a survey to travelers as to new airlines and destinations they might like to see the airport serve, and it seemed to be a specific list of airlines as I believe WN was notably absent. UA, F9, Silver, WS, and maybe one more were the airlines, and I think (using blanket terms instead of identifiers for major metros), Chicago, DTW, PHL, FLL, BOS, Washington, DC, YYZ were among the choices for cities. In other words, several were destinations which could be served either by new entrants and/or incumbents (with AA having ORD, PHL, DCA hubs, but F9 conceivably running PHL as well).

My money's on Silver, but anything else would be nice. I'd like DL to DTW to give me an alternative to ATL to get there, if needed. Somebody posted a rumor months ago about G4 DAB-PIT, which seems unlikely given the massive presence at SFB but you never know.

High yields from MSP though. Should be high enough to survive a seasonal daily E175.

FA9295 · Tue Sep 11, 2018 8:17 pm

I would put my bets on AA to DFW and MIA or Silver Airways to TPA and FLL.

I think Silver seems like a safe bet to be honest. Like I mentioned above a flight to FLL will connect not only with their own network, but also B6's network out of FLL thanks to the codeshare which could be a nice revenue driver for B6. Also this may by cause and effect bring UA coded flights back to DAB since UA has a codeshare with them as well.

All of that's valid. Also, as of now, you have to go north to go south no matter what your destination is. FLL would open up the Caribbean and South America without having to backtrack.

I'm still hoping for DL to DTW or AA to PHL/DCA/LGA because the one hub thing is killing me this week when I'm connecting through CLT just in time for a hurricane and can't route myself through another hub to get into DAB.

Or even DL to LGA. They seem to have more slots than they know what to do with them and A220s coming in next year. Seems like a great aircraft for such a route if you ask me despite jetBlue on JFK-DAB. AA to ORD might be plausible as well or would that have to be a UA route?

Dominion301 · Tue Sep 11, 2018 8:35 pm

Hmmm Sunwing have DAB listed under 'flights' (i.e. without a vacation package) with 28JAN19 being the first date, with dates on Mondays and Thursdays. However, when you select a date, you get "Invalid return date". Might be them!

There was a posting here a couple of weeks ago about new Sunwing MIA services, including to YOW and YQB. However, nothing in that regard has ever shown up on their website as both YOW and YQB still only have their usual weekly FLL on Sunwing loaded.

drdisque · Tue Sep 11, 2018 8:38 pm

I don't see Silver announcing ANY new flights until they get their aircraft situation sorted out.

I personally think it will be a ULCC or Elite.

DL ran DAB-LGA a couple winters seasonally on E175s. I think it was Saturday-only.

I think you could make the case for ORD for either airline. AA is established at DAB (even though it's all former US, which doesn't mean much), but UA ran ORD when they were there 2006-08 on weekends.

An Allegiant announcement is possible, PIT-DAB has been rumored for a long time so doubt it will happen, but Allegiant normally does Tuesday announcements.

If an existing airline announcement more than likely American adding service to MIA or PHL or JetBlue to BOS.
If a new airline then I am willing to bet Silver to FLL or United to IAH or EWR.

DAB is now listed in the flight drop down menu on the sunwing.ca site. I’m going with this. And this was the article in question, but not yet announced.

No, Sunwing never announced flights, but there was an article about them considering adding YYZ-DAB.

Yes, DL has done seasonal LGA-DAB plenty of times in the past, and in 2008 it actually ran daily on a CR9 alongside FL's LGA-DAB on a 717.

I wouldn't say Allegiant is impossible for sure, especially since B6 was also rumored for a long time, and about 10 years later it finally happened.

I just can't see UA coming back to DAB after their not so amicable exit back in 2007.

DAB is now listed in the flight drop down menu on the sunwing.ca site. I’m going with this.

Yes, but if you try to book, it lists flights to MCO with hotel options in Daytona Beach.

Taking an educated guess on Sunwing from Toronto, seasonal.

WeatherPilot · Tue Sep 11, 2018 8:48 pm

I'm going to guess F9 announcing BTV-DAB tomorrow. NK and G4 already service PBG so BTV wouldn't make sense. With BTV and DAB both happening tomorrow I could see this as a route aimed at Canadian pax. Could be other routes F9 announces as well, maybe BTV-MCO, TPA, RDU?

Looks like just Mondays and Thursdays

master14225 · Tue Sep 11, 2018 8:50 pm

I can bet it's YYZ-DAB, it's a route that is totally viable and Sunwing had interests to run this route.

DeltaRules · Tue Sep 11, 2018 8:50 pm

AC was said to be adding YYZ-DAB around 9/11 (edit: the 9/11 everyone knows the date for, not today) but it never happened. I seem to remember reading operational issues with the CRJ-200 on here years later didn't help.

Yes because it hasn’t been announced yet. Don’t look at the package vacation tab. Look at flights only. Only cities actually serviced by WG are listed. DAB is there. It’s WG.

Wow, that's great news! Now some of the seemingly plentiful Ontario/Quebec license plates you see in the area can leave the car at home. Do we have a start date?

Also, should the service be hidden until the announcement tomorrow on Wikipedia?

I could see AA having a flight from DFW maybe DCA most likely not LGA since they don't have enough spots, and most people fly through PHL when going to Europe. I hope they add a new route because I hate CLT

I saw somewhere in the chat about a flight from Pittsburgh to Daytona on allegiant air I think it could work since the flights going to and from Orlando to Pittsburgh seem to be full and most people when visiting Florida go to the beach that a flight to Daytona might be more attractive than a flight to Orlando Sanford

Allegiant is looking at a lot of stuff right now, but expansion is on hold for the moment due to the MD80s being retired. Once more A320s come in over the fall/winter, there will be quite a few new routes starting in the spring.

I saw somewhere in the chat about a flight from Pittsburgh to Daytona on allegiant air I think it could work since the flights going to and from Orlando to Pittsburgh seem to be full and most people when visiting Florida go to the beach that a flight to Daytona might be more attractive than a flight to Orlando Sanford

Allegiant is looking at a lot of stuff right now, but expansion is on hold for the moment due to the MD80s being retired. Once more A320s come in over the fall/winter, there will be quite a few new routes starting in the spring.

I would love to see this flight happen since I like how cheap allegiant is but I don't like Sanford, I think it's creepy. Plus this will make flights cheaper

I've got a family friend who might be able to put this to good use. He usually has to go to BUF and drive into Canada so, if this is cheap enough, it might work perfectly.

WHY ? It was relevant information? It's a good add. They're only in 3 other Florida airports.....or is it 4?

I checked Sunwing's website and couldn't find DAB the first time so I didn't want to say anything right away.
