All gate usage at T2 is common use, it’s just that as of now, SY and WN use what appears to be their own gates. Expansion would benefit SY, because WN is not growing at MSP at all. SY will basically be H1-H10 (with some exceptions like FI, DE and F9's international flights), WN remains on H11, H12,...

Yeah, we all know it is coming. I'm going to guess a sub-daily 767.

Not a rumor. Have heard from two people who work for DL that it was confirmed via an internal communication. Seasonal service through March 2024 with a 767-300.

No new routes for MKE but +11 daily departures from last year October, about a 58% increase. 2023 will see 30 per weekday versus 19 last year. 2019 October was 33/day so it's not complete recovery yet, but with a higher diet of 175-seat aircraft in MKE total capacity should be about 94-95% of 2019....

It looks like the schedule extension was pushed a week or so to June 16.

Sounds like summer cuts are coming. Is this staffing related? I just saw a news report last night that bookings are at pre-pandemic levels now, so I can't see low bookings being the cause. My understanding is that it's (at least primarily) because of higher fuel costs In other words, airlines can s...
