Hey everyone.
Me being a fequent traveler out of STL, and I am sure we have other STLouisans around on the board who hopefully are just as concerned as me.
What should happen if AA goes down or takes out a hub of STL? I have been hearing facts that if AA were to shut down a hub STL will be the first to go. Now..Personally, I wouldn't mind because I swear to god..If I see ONE MORE MD-80 I am gonna shout! But getting off-topic now....I am basically just wondering about STL. I am seeing sooo mnay routes being replaced with smaller aircrafts.
For example for each airline doing what at STL.
-AA has replaced ALOT of 757's flights with MD-80(great, more MD-80's.) and replacing most of Midwest to Midwest flights reaching as far as OMA west and JAX East. So they are downsizing BIG!
-Southwest has cut back on two non-stop service from STL which was FLL and IND. IND they stopped service overall, and FLL we now have to stop somewhere in florida or Change Planes.
-Continental used to fly 737's to IAH, and CLE, but now they have replaced it all with regional jets with non-stop flights to EWR from STL, who the HELL WOULD WANNA FLY A ERJ-145 STL-EWR? Thats waay to long!! and NUTS.
Personally here are some RUMORS(Note I said rumors, not facts) and ideas I would love to happen at STL. Should AA only provide non-stop service to DFW and ORD and cut out the HUB.
-Southwest to add another terminal
-US Airways possibly come make a hub out of it.
-Jetblue is rumored to start a STL-JFK service even if AA is in service to STL
-AirTran may start a couple of service and use STL as the MAIN Midwest Airport.
-SONG to add some STL-JFK or possibly FLL(seeing as AA only flies MD-80's and SWA doesn't fly STL-FLL N/S
I don't know. I posted this to hear some facts, rumors, suggestions, comments, stories..that you can add from experience or knowledge, about the future of St. Louis-Lambert International Airport.

PS- One good news I have heard is that Aer Lingus has included STL as possibly airports to add service to.
