I don't think they will be moving 757s North, more likely MD88s. I can see DC9s coming into ATL, but not a base, rather just more flights through here. I see A330s and 744s having a base here, and 767ERs moving to SEA and MSP. I don't know if they would come from ATL or JFK, but there is bound to be some loss of positions if the A330s do replace some routes. I think the A320s will stay in MSP/DTW/MEM, but also set up shop in SLC---doing some Montana flying that we lost to the RJs (the last day of a 4 day trip might consist of LGA-MSP-BZN-SLC on an A319). The reason the MD88 or MD90s would go to MSP is because they can hit both coasts from there, whereas they cannot now from SLC.(there will also probably be some A330 flying from SLC--NRT, CDG, AMS) JFK will probably get some A330 flying too, and maybe MSP or DTW could get 777 flying, to replace the 744s going to ATL. SEA will get bigger as a base probably with the addition of 76ERs, and that will take some flying from JFK on those ERs, and be replaced with A330s. Most of this is speculation with some hints from certain people that may know what they are talking about... It will be interesting to see.....
