They probably won't close any bases but there will be another reshuffle. There always is with a base opening.

There are a lot of senior pilots in DEN and elsewhere that will jump on Dallas, I don't think it will be a painful displacement - at least I hope so for everyone's sake.

I sincerely hope they’ve learned their lesson. If you displace people from their base/seat they’re never going to grow the airline. With the planned hiring and upgrades there’s enough to grow into DFW.
it’s DFW, btw…

Is the consensus that DFW will go senior? I'm in MCO and would consider jumping over.

Any idea how many F9 pilots live in Texas? I don't recall flying with too many over the years.

There were several las Fo’s that commute from Dallas. They took upgrades mostly in phl and/or Florida somewhere because they couldn’t hold las captain. One or two came back to las recently but I’m sure their taking dfw. I’m happy for them. All good people.
