Will not be another CA city, workman's comp and taxes go through the roof if more than one base supposedly.

ADD: ATL/MIN/MEM if the micro-base start ups are in the works

The scheduling committee has run line construction scenarios on the major base possibilities. They know that LAS would be a popular choice on the line, but they found that the lines out of LAS would SUQ bigtime, and even have a degradation effect on other bases. Early PM starts, late AM finishes, plane changes, mid day sits, et-cetera.
The nicest sched scenarios came out of SMF and TPA. The swapa recommendation then became TPA. However, a birdy told me that the company is leaning toward BNA, but they are still running marketing and yield scenarios.
