Wouldn't that have to be the case? I mean the excess AirTran flying could just make it's way up to MKE or BWI, right?

It's not healthy if their target is their new employees though. They should have their gun sights aimed at DAL, not FL... and ATL tower.

Of course how do we know the 717 isn't about to show up in BWI or MDW or OAK?

Personally I think the inner wall of the victor loop is in the crosshairs.

Only if you're invited. "OUR pilots don't like to be crowded."

I believe that's what the gate agent said.
