Lol, OK, so more than a year already:

Feels like more than a year.

 In the meantime UA has launched a 3rd US city and LY has launched several US cities.

Like I said, wake me up when AAnnounced.

He's been saying that for years. Wake me up when announced.

Jon has one goal in life....to begin selling / trading / bartering systemwide upgrades for cash or his own benefit, just like he used to for years before American Airlines slapped him silly.

And it’s confirmed Dfw-tlv 3x weekly

Why Dallas over Chicago or Philly? There are already a number of Non-stop flights from the West Coast so people wont connect through Dallas (out of the way)...Not much of a jewish community in Dallas either.

my guess is the Dallas is their only growing hub with no direct competition as opposed to Chicago where by the time they start the flight they will have elal as competition, while they obviously couldn't make Philly work last time around so they would rather try from somewhere new (and probably get the grant for a new route for which Philly might not have been eligible)

Looks like they expect good support here with Dallas having a large tech community like SFO flights for United that have been very successful with corporate travelers. This is less of a direct competition to the routes run by all the others.

AA.   PHL-CMN in the summer, AA are u serious? The weather is 110F, on average.

The tourism season is in our winter.

I can see a PHL - CMN route working, AT has many NA flights per day, but y make it seasonal and run it on off season dates?

Is it the Unions deciding the new routes? Maybe the courts have decided.
Always praying for delayed baggage.

i would guess they are also banking on the large christian evengalical communities as tourists, as well as making it as connection point for South American countries.
