Nice knowing we already have our flight. If this happened and we didn’t, people would lose it. Hahastlgasm wrote: ↑Nov 17, 2022Meanwhile, in Cincinnati…

Business community is who the should be blaming. The airport can hardly offer anything, some fee waivers. Businesses are who need to step up.pdm_ad wrote: ↑Nov 17, 2022If you think there is angst here, check out the message boards for our western neighbor, KC. People there want their airport officials fired as they were led to believe that TATL service was forthcoming and that BA would be the carrier. At this point, they'd be happy to have Iceland Air service return.
My favorite are the condescending comments regarding Cincinnati’s economy. This idea that KC is lapping it’s peers or performing at a Nashville or Denver growth rate.pdm_ad wrote:If you think there is angst here, check out the message boards for our western neighbor, KC.

Oh for sure! I know that the business community would prefer to use JetBlue should they start and expand operations here, but a part of me also wouldn't want to blow up what we already have with Southwest at the expense of something else. I don't know, maybe I'm just overthinking everything (especially since there's no current plans for JetBlue to expand into the Midwest). That being said, I would love to see a dual hub-type setup in the new terminal and hopefully give the authority a reason for a potential phase 2 expansion of the terminal should it ever get to that point. It would help to serve the two major types of travelers: business and leisure/vacation travelers, and would help to grow passenger numbers YOY thus putting STL back on the map especially with non-U.S. airlines who might want to expand their US offerings.symphonicpoet wrote: ↑Nov 18, 2022^Mind you, I have no particular reason to think JetBlue is looking to open a mid-continent hub beyond the fact they don't presently have one. But if they are and they were to open it I would gladly take a hit on Southwest's offerings, since JetBlue seems to offer a real business class product, they partner with other carriers, and they fly overseas. I'm glad Southwest is here offering service, but in the end they're no use to me at all. And their opportunity for growth is pretty limited since they're married to their single type rating/everybody flies everything model. I figure Shadrach's fantasy is a fantasy, but I like it. Man, I'd love to see the day someone actually takes a solid step above Southwest. Any of the legacy carriers would do nicely, but barring that JetBlue might just be the ticket.
Probably helps that Cincinnati has a legit business community that includes 7 Fortune 500 HQs, some of which include this country’s biggest corporate brands. KC has one company on that list and I bet 95% of Americans have never heard of Seaboard.Among the Cincinnati companies with a presence in the United Kingdom are Procter & Gamble, General Electric and CTI. The region has 450 foreign-owned firms, said REDI Cincinnati CEO Kimm Lauterbach.
