IF it is a new airline route out of SAT, how about Spirit? (AFAIK, they still serve SAT, correct? To LAS?) NK seems to be on a big growth spurt right now, so maybe they will announce another batch of new routes Monday, including some/something out of SAT. Just a thought. bb NK is actually doing qui...

Didn't AUS have Sukhoi Jets flying to/from Mexico regularly for scheduled routes with InterJet? Or am I thinking of SAT?
Jump to postI hate to say this, but SAT is a dying airport; practically on life support especially with COVID-19. The only saving grace for the area is if Austin and San Antonio create a new airport between the two, it can certainly become a DFW-lite airport. Otherwise, in due time, I think even ELP will surpas...

Jump to postWe will see SAT get TATL service, which is long overdue. Based on what? It's not a particularly large market to any European destination (wasn't in the top 8 unserved markets in the Brookings 2011 study nor the Sabre 2013 numbers), and it's surrounded by relatively new service.... so barring a part...

No way these routes, or the routes in AUS, last longer than one year.
Jump to postIt won't happen. Austin won't ever be a true hub. Maybe more routes, but it's the same problem as SAT has. Too close to megahubs. I tend to agree. I think AUS will continue to grow and perhaps even become a focus city at some point. But I do not think we'll see AUS become a true hub, at least not w...

Ah, okay then. Have done a quick google, are bookings open to the public? Still a bit of a grey area IMO.
SAT attracts way more tourists than AUS though
