Why is the world ending?
And when is AA declaring bankruptcy?
I need to know for my Miata down payment.

The only gate UAL operates out of the C gates is the one owned by the city. And I’m not even sure why you guys park there when you have an entire terminal. It’s gotta be a PITA for crews and pax to have to get off and take the train to B and haul ass to the end to catch their next flight in 30 min.
WN is growing to around 400 flights a day in DEN and AA will be evicted from the C gates and moving back to A in a year or so. It’ll be the biggest base for WN….and it’s not going anywhere. If UAL is going to 900 flights a day….you’re gonna need way more gates and a couple more runways…neither is happening anytime soon.

Next. Network planning builds a dream schedule they’d like to fly. Flights ops comes back and says here’s what we can fly without stretching the operations too thin. They have explicit direction from the top to focus on reliability. So what you’re seeing is network plannings’ dream schedule being trimmed. Mostly of course is due to pilot shortage at Eagle.
What you’re not seeing of course is that many former Eagle cities are now seeing bigger mainline planes. Particularly in CLT.
Btw did you miss that UAL cut out 36 markets from EWR all together just a few months ago? Want to guess what the driver for that decision was?

UAL is slot restricted in EWR. So cutting out 36 markets means that United has picked up 36 more profitable routes, like the 2nd daily Naples flight they just added. Also Untied is replacing all RJs into EWR with mainline planes so that’s going to change where those planes fly.

Yes, driver behind that decision was to free up space for summer Europe flying and upgauging regional equipment to mainline equipment and shifting regional connections through IAD. If there is a cut out of EWR, there is a addition to replace that cut in that hub.
