ASA's new mini hubs?

[Airboss]

The new president was in ops talking today. The subject of hubs came up. Skywest is looking at many mini hubs (16) similar to the Skywest operation. CVG is at the top of the list.

Aircraft growth was also discussed but he said we need a few more months of performance similar to November before they expand.

You mean ASA is looking at mini hubs like Skywest, or Skywest is looking at opening mini hubs out East while we continue to have ATL as our only option? Clarify your post TecmoTard

ASA is looking at opening up bases similar to Skyw.

I would guess: CVG, CAE, & BTR. Just my .02

i would imagine these bases would go rather junior....(oh yea, BNA would be nice too if they could just go ahead and open that, and no one needs to bid. Yea that would be great)

It saves on hotel expense. Look at all of SKY small So Cal bases. Very few if not any stand ups or overnights.

somthing you may not know is that skywest crews overnight in other crew bases all the time. ie DEN crew overnights in TUS, SLC in DEN and so on.

Sounds like an opportunity to upgrade.
