I know you're enamored with the far East Valley, but the fact is, I doubt you'll see any increased commercial service to
IWA outside of
G4. That airport is in the middle of nowhere. If Spirit and Frontier couldn't make it work, jetBlue won't take the chance. I have to go out that way (the 60/Signal Butte) once a year for a week. It's a brutal trip to my place in Central Phoenix. I can only imagine how annoyed a first time visitor would be if they flew
BOS-
IWA and had to get to the Phoenician.
