Obviously if we are announcing this growth, we have a way of parking airplanes somewhere but how much more space has been offered/committed is a good question.

Just got done reading the CAPA report and it occurred to me, what if the big push is to build brand and name recognition in the Pacific Northwest before the merger and the Alaska name goes away.
Kind of put the kernel in everyone's mind that Delta was there before anyone else who would try to come in after a Delta/Alaska merge?

And, by putting pressure on their market share, their share price goes down and we buy them at a discount.
I still think Hawaiian makes more sense. If we are worried about the Narita hub losing its strategic advantage, wouldn't Hawaii and some more heavies make for an ideal staging area for overflights into Asia? Not to mention the route authority Hawaiian has to all those Asian cities. (Although we probably have route authority to those Asian cities we aren't using right now.)

As far as gates, couldn't they extend out the A gates like they did at T4 at JFK? That would give extra gate space and maybe all of our customers wouldn't have to take the train. I love going out of the B gates there.

All good. A "shallow" quake they're calling it. Still, 5.1 isn't anything to sniff at. They're starting to increase in frequency though. They seem to flow like meteor storms out here. We've had a few lean years. Let's hope this isn't the beginning of something larger....especially now that we're starting to kick some serious Eskimo butt.
As long as I don't end up doing a "John Cusack in 2012", it's all good!
