Hard to get massive growth when there are minimal changes from last year. Not many larger planes or new routes, or even additional frequencies. This year, if there are no changes, will be almost stagnant.

Had nice flights from OKC to LAX and back this past weekend on AA. Full flights each way
It is a little eye opening. I will say, Alaska's fares lately have been really expensive so maybe that had something to do with people looking at other options. I'm looking at fares for July and from Wednesday to Sunday, it's $1352.40 roundtrip for two! I might have to find alternate routes up there
About Alaska, did they have to cancel flights because of the 737max 9 / 900 debacle and the following Faa stoppage ?
A couple of cancelled round trip would match the difference in pasengers.
good point

A quick glance,looks like Alaska had 5 cancelled flights in January.
The extent to which we are underserved is getting slightly concerning
To channel Catch, by the lack of new routes or increased frequency shows the airlines think we are right where we need to be. It is a bit annoying thought to see new routes from all sorts of sizes of cities. Frontier and Allegiant had pretty big route expansions over the last few weeks and us and Tulsa were still left out. Not a ton of domestic expansion out of legacy carriers tho. The only real big one has been delta capturing some of the lost routes from Austin. Still hoping AA brings back PHL soon.
Anecdotal for sure, but last weekend's OKC-DCA flight was full as appeared OKC-LGA, and coming back DCA-OKC full. Any hope for OKC-BOS????
American phasing out all 50 seater jets by 2030. Large order of jets to help with up-gauging routes. https://thepointsguy.com/news/americ...ng-737-max-10/
Flew RT OKC=>ORD=>BTV mid-January for $570. Need to do it again Mid-March. $1337. WTH airlines? Virtually same days and itinerary.
That is the Monday of spring break, depending on when in mid-March you're going.
Excellent news to get Embraer to replace the CRJ. When I moved to OKC it was crj 200 and embraer 145 in all the directions. Then we got these Emb 170/5 and 190/5, what a change.
Nice support from AA to order Max 10 but as this point it just throwing money in a wishing well.
$316 Million Will Be Spent On Upgrading Oklahoma's Airports

Whatever happened to Catch22?
Looks like OKC is serious about adding international flights: https://simpleflying.com/oklahoma-ci...nal-expansion/.
They mentioned Mexico, Central America, and Caribbean as destinations OKC is already working with the airlines; and that OKC has Mexico and Guatemalan Consulates. I could easily see 5-weekly OKC-MEX, and at least 1-weekly, seasonal OKC-CUN and OKC-PVR. Would we have enough for Guatemala City or would Aeromexico or Viva do OKC-MEX-GUA?
Would be lovely if we could see a reincarnation of Great Plains Airlines to feed OKC's Int'l flights (this time, just have OKC as the hub).
