What is UAL Thinking? Ted Going to MDW!

[SWA/FO]

NW is giving back 100 airplanes, right? Are most of those the regional type?

I thought they were parking/giving back a bunch of 9s and some buses? Don't kow for sure, but that would kind of take a bite out of their "fight" a bit. They would have less metal to throw at us.

I had no idea they were/are building a new terminal in ATL... Thats an AirTran operation? Or Delta or just the city?

 

[crosscut]

The new terminal will be on the side of the new runway (South of 9R/27L). The last I heard was the next year for runway completion & around 2010 to finish the terminal. I'm sure someone here might have a more accurate schedule. However, with Delta being (one of) the biggest employers in GA (after Home Depot, I think), WN might have as much of a political resistance to move in as FL did in MDW, although nothing would surprise me anymore.
