Jump to postDid DL give up gate E70 at TPA? Noticed heavy usage amongst AC & F9 in recent online FIDS searches. Apparently Delta never had it prior it was always common use gate its just now Airside E is so overcrowded youll never see DL using it again And maybe makes sense/truth to DL wanting Airside D
Jump to postWith Breeze adding TPA-PNS, we shall see how long Silver tries to stick it out. TPA-PNS, is one of their (3M's) best performing routes LF wise, and as myself and family have taken the Silver flights back and forth from TPA-PNS-TPA many times, the Breeze flights are certainly more attractive already.
Jump to postI found it interesting that CUN survived the cuts. Sounds like more cuts are coming in April and that JetBlue is going back to their 'bread and butter' routes, which could mean some more TPA p2p NE routes, BUF, DCA? But the p2p market is getting eaten by Breeze currently so who knows. With B6 exiti...
Jump to postTPA-BQN will soon lose its last flight, once B6 ends it's route.

I do think BQN would have worked on either one of B6 or F9, but both of them launching it at the same time and competing means we get this.
Anyone know why the EYW-BOS flight has been doing a stop at TPA on occasional days? Is it a tech stop? To heavy to take off from the short EYW with full fuel?

Jump to postTPA has very little gate space left.
And it won't be until Airside D is done, which is 4-5 years away and rumor is DL is vying for Airside D.
Which could lead UA to moving to E and taking the lounge space for a UA Club, but all of that is a handful of years away from even being an option.
A presser from Avelo indicates all 4 new cities are being served from HVN.
So we have:
TYS
USA
LAL?

I can't wait to see what they do with LAL and also what they do with MCO/TPA in conjunction with LAL.
It's one thing to move MCO ops to LAL, but convincing the consumer that LAL is just as good as MCO or SFB for the Disney crowd, is going to be more challenging.
Airside F at TPA is also fairly crunched and any new trans-Atlantic route would want to be around the bank of times that everyone already operates, so space wise F for INTL evening departures is pretty slim. And an airline isn't going to just add TPA at sub-optimal schedule times. Airside D will rea...
