If Delta/NWA pulled the plug on SLC they would in effect be abandoning the entire west coast. Should they actually do this it would automatically trigger SKYW contingency plan 3C5 option 2 whereby SKYW would immediately acquire the Alaska Air Group to form a west coast powerhouse backed by an exclusive fuel purchase agreement secretly negotiated with Hugo Chaves; Jet A1 for 25 cents per gallon. I know this to be true as I negotiated the deal myself through my myspace account while on a layover in SFO last week.
increased ops out of LAX i'd suspect. remember, United's scope threw out the compeitition clause, so Skywest can operate for UAL and DAL out of the same airport. It will get interesting.
I'm not sure about this one....
Shuttle couldn't operate the E-jets for Frontier out of DEN because of UALs competition clause - that's why Republic do it. Not, as many think, because Shuttle is scoped by # of seats......
I think SkyWest could certainly operate both out of LAX, but UAL might have something to say about it.

iliaJust my opinion, but any rumor or threat to close down SLC is mostly a scare tactic to keep things competitive.
Put people on edge about their job, and you might see them take pay concessions, or at least stop pushing for a raise.
I'm seeing similar things in the Cargo world. Their tactics may seem like management nonsense, but they're obviously trying to keep the pressure on, and labor costs down.
