It seems to me recently that more and more airlines are adding flights to their hubs instead of point to point. For a while a few airlines, such as FL and of course Southwest, were adding many point to point flights. But it seems now that the trend is starting to go back to adding flights to the "hubs." I know recently FL added a TPA-Biloxi flight but it looks like the hubs are making a "comeback." Any thoughts? cheers  Smile


The next generation of aircraft is just around the corner!

Hub-sites never went anywhere. If there is a comeback then its with the media types that report this stuff. Hubs still remain the most efficient way to transport people and goods from small to medium cities, and some large cities. Only larger cities can support point ot point service. FYI---hubs were invented during the railroad days.
