So maybe the de-hubbing will have the positive impact of better pricing around the spectrum?
Could this be another tale of Gam Zu L'Tovah?

Why does that impact the ticket prices?

You know what we need? An Avios-like program from a Sky~~Tuchis~~Team airline.

Wow. Thanks for the tip! It's not a "SkyTeam program" per se, but looks like a good idea anyway. But one commenter there mentioned not being able to select a destination airport within the US... have you tried this yet?

Yeah, but at 8 flights a day vs. 1 AA flight per day, sheer quantity does help, I suppose.

This is the closest you'll get for now

Although its not close to as good as Avios this seems the cheapest option for now

In that case, I take back what I said about him knowing his stuff.

Very informative article about Burke.

Yup, read that before.
Sums up everything wrong with this city's leadership.

In Chicago they used the bulldozer. Ought to do the same thing here and reclaim our shoreline.

Delta will begin flying a daily nonstop to Hartford, Conn., in June, according to schedules posted on the carrier's web site. The Cleveland-Hartford flight will be seasonal, starting June 5 and ending Aug. 26.

Frontier Airlines between Cleveland and Seattle and Orlando, Fla. The Denver-based airline is kicking off the June service with introductory one-way fares starting at $69 to Orlando and $119 to Seatle

As an aside, Burke is so convinient for private planes flying into downtown. While I dont have hard data, I imagine that with less nonstops, more corporate planes will be flying in here.

The flight will be daily, departing Hopkins at 6:50 p.m. and returning at 8:45 p.m.

Seems odd to me.

Beginning June 13 on F9:
CLE-ATL
CLE-PHX
CLE-RSW

June 14:
CLE-FLL

June 15:
CLE-RDU
CLE-TPA

Looks like frontier in encroaching on ex. UA territory
