This is a great step forward in WN's move from being just a "lower 48" to being an int'l carrier.
When you look back at where WN was in 2013 from a perspective of 2018, it will be apparent that the HOU int'l terminal project was a key step in adding a non-traditional competitor into many markets, including traditionally ethnic Latin America markets, that have never had a lot of price competition. While other low fare carriers have concentrated on leisure markets, WN's growth will be just as large if not larger in key Latin America business and ethnic markets. Houston's geography is perfectly suited for helping WN achieve that transformation.
