@amarkowitzWX It’s to not have people booking cheap tickets from Philly to AC or other examples like that, so say it’s Boston to AC via PHL, that ticket would be $150, but just PHL ACY will be $1000
Again, it’s pricing models stopping people from doing that
@InfantryPilot It’s basically a meme thing, AAs last M80 flight was the same thing 1K+ standbys, they will most likely embargo the flight for nonreving if it persists
@StatisticUrban Southwest, frontier, and United all have massive hubs there, the vast majority of those passengers numbers are connections same with ATL and DFW… connections are the largest volume in those airports
@adamzivo RCT2 was probably the best game for building the most ridiculous rides imaginable… but yes it did teach a great lesson about having a solid balance sheet
