An link-following FrontBurnervian takes me to task for my “Kelleher is bluffing” comments:
No offense, but Velotta doesn’t say the Kelleher is bluffing, nor did Kelleher ever single out Vegas. The article says that Houston or Phoenix is a more likely destination than Vegas. I would say that Phoenix is probably their top relocation destination, with Chicago probably sitting at the second spot.I would expect that SWA would eventually leave Dallas were the Wright Amendment not…well, amended. The airline has never been known for wasting time or money, so why would they here (I say this as a former intern from many years ago; they never wasted any money paying me)? That said, I like Wick’s idea, or something similar to play out and make the whole thing moot.
Yes, but then I wouldn’t be able to make the Vegas-y metaphor of bluffing. Oh, and if you’re wondering about “Wick’s idea,” click here.
