Saw this on another board............

Here are some interesting statistics - top ten destinations served by USAir from Philly. Suddenly I've gained respect for the big brains in Dallas.

US Air generates 25% of its revenue flying out of Philadelphia, where it maintains a hub and has 72% market share. Here's a look at the top 10 destinations from Philly and where US Air must protect share.

Destination............/ # of Passengers .............US Air Market Share
Chicago...........................805,500............................26%
Orlando...........................798,370............................70%
Los Angeles.....................513,340............................45%
Fort Lauderdale...............472,310............................67%
Bay Area..........................454,990............................46%
Las Vegas........................427,220............................42%
Tampa..............................421,070............................75%
Houston........................... 249,450............................32%
Phoenix.............................247,340............................46%

Does USAir still do CLT to GSO in a 737? Maybe you can do RDU to GSO. At'll show 'em who's boss!

USAirways is not going to take this sitting down. I was watching a local (LA) channel, and saw an ad for USAirways. The ad showed a guy going to the USAirways web site and clicking on flights from PHL to LAX.

Anyway, I can't recall the last time I saw a TV ad for USAirways in the Los Angeles area.

USAIR may not be in a financial postion that would allow them to respond..

In other words..They may not have much choice..

While im not one to count anybody out before the fight is over,If this is not the end for USAIR I would think that they can see it from where they are now..
