Southwest to Newark!

[Flying the Line]

Funny they do not have to action those slots off when the give them to LUV.

You're a genius. Except they're not getting the slots they're leasing them.

Until the doj says they have to give them up and swa is already there

This will be a good thing. More commute options and it will probably put more customers on CAL widebodies. Sure am glad it's SWA rather than some European, half-sked, let's-go-across-the-Atlantic-for-ten-bucks outfit.

You feel it don't you? You know, that "oh crap" feeling way down deep in your flopgut.

The Borg cannot be stopped.

Uh, you're kidding right? I don't see a problem with this. I hope you last at least as long at EWR as you did at Intercontinental.

As a poolie I'm glad to see this but then again it's Newark, and I hate Newark.

 

[CL65'er]

Anyone from LUV think they will call some poolies in early 2011 or just further optimize and reschedule aircraft around? Keeping my fingers crossed!!!

 

[B727Driver]

Along with EWR, the news of Mexicana closing the doors, may be time for SWA forget the Volairs and do it themselves. Order a bunch of -800's. There will be a huge gap left in flying to/from Mexico and some $$$ to be made. That should help the poolies. Interesting times ahead for SWA.

 

[Furloughed80]

Wow, all CAL/UAL had to do to alleviate the DOJ's anti-trust concerns was lease 18 slot pairs to LUV at EWR? It simply doesn't get any better than that. I remember many people on this forum saying that CAL/UAL would have to divest many slots/routes/assets because of "all the overlap." I guess you were all wrong.

 

[livintheredream]

At least Kelly is doing something. Bob F of AirTran pulled out of EWR last year with his tail between his legs and also is pulling out if MIA to go where? Tunica and Branson... Airtran is waiting for buyer.

 

[afhercdriver]

.......... the news of Mexicana closing the doors,

Did I miss something?

 

[Snaab]

LGA is a picnic compared to EWR.

Ditto!!

Any idea which hubs/cities the SWA will fly to out of EWR?
