I wonder will UA respond by going all mainline jets on SFO-ONT. SWA will be adding a third flight to DEN next June maybe UA will add additional flights to DEN like the old days with 4 flights a day. Maybe UA or AA will add an ORD flight soon. Then UA to IAH. I've noticed that UA has been using a mi...
Jump to postSo glad to see ONT-SFO on WN.
Flights begin on June 9th. 4x MON-FRI and 3x SAT/SUN.
Unless they felt like starting BUR-Hawaii too. Doesn't Burbank have similar runway length issues as SNA does? Just curious, not trying to be argumentative. I'd love to see SNA service. Please Lord, please let it happen!!! Actually, from South Orange County Long Beach actually isn't all that conveni...
Jump to postSNA will be a very interesting development to see in this extension Yea curious to see this. SNA is a hard airport to have a consistent business op due to annual slot allocations. Will this schedule show the Hawaii expansion or will that be on the next schedule release following this one? Any guess...

Jump to postI'm going to field a guess and say its the jet stream that may be causing the turbulance.
Jump to postIt makes sense. If a pilot knows the airline is going down it makes sense to him to leave now, before better pilots are available later. The likelihood of him being hired is less if he is in competition with more experience pilots.
