...and SWA came in right behind them to establish the largest intrastate Florida presence. If US didn't want the profits, might as well let SWA have them.

And TWA flew to TLV, TW no longer exists and the flight no longer operates. What's you point?
MIA is a very small station for US, they have a few gates in J but are still on track to move to E later this year.

His point is that PI as well as US at one point had a sizable operation in MIA. Give credit to the old US CCY crew for destroying that along with a long list of operations that somehow were profitable until they got their hands on them.
Larger markets are often focuses of frequency. Which will sell better: 4 flights a day to BOS or 10 (12?)? Find the times and frequencies that work, then upsize the aircraft as needed to accommodate demand.

Never knew that it accounted for that much revenue. I recall PI shifting the F-28 1000/4000's between the Fla shuttle and the SYR hub during the off seasons. I guess this shouldn't come as a surprised since they also destroyed the entire PSA system within 3 years. Still puzzles me how they could take two very profitable airlines such as PI & US, and turn it all into a money losing turd.

Cool northern efficiency. Worked every time to efficiently destroy operations and the profits they represented.
