Re: OFFICIAL - Prairiefire

I heard a rumor that Mahomes asked how steady the CWS was in Omaha & I thought that idea silly at the time. I still say there is zero way they'd ever let it walk but who knows the pull of 15. The NCAA is contractually bound to Omaha til at least 2035. That was the trade off to Omaha building a ...

Re: News from Omaha

I know we love to complain about our bi-state issues but having your airport disconnected not only from your city but your state by old borders of an oxbow lake is pretty weird. Gotta be a huge pain for transit and everything involved for them. It would be if the above was true It isn't Try Google ...

Re: OFFICIAL - New KCI Terminal

With regard to passenger pickup, where I live the arrivals area can be four lanes full and crazy. What we do is if our arriving passengers don't have checked bags, and in some cases even if they do, we pick them up on the departures level. It's either not very full or even if it is the cars move qui...

KCI covers 16 square miles. DEN covers 54 square miles. Yeah I doubt they'll be outgrowing DEN anytime soon.

Re: KCI Flight Schedule Adjustments

Does David Neeleman have some kind of grudge against Kansas City? Whenever he runs an airline KC is always skipped and looked over. Has he ever mentioned KC as why doesn't consider this market, maybe its the South West domination here. I would be happy if we got Breeze here, but I wonder if the pro...

This thread could due with a lot less jargon. Looking up all these TLA's is tiresome.
It could also do without grammar mistakes but that's a whole other discussion.

Re: KCI Flight Schedule Adjustments

Omaha doesn't have nonstops to LAX nor to MIA. That is where many people connect to Asia and to South America, especially those who travel in international premium classes. Omaha does have flights to LaGuardia as does Kansas City MCI. American has flights to both LA and Miami from Omaha. In additio...

Re: KCI Flight Schedule Adjustments

Met a few different persons this week traveling back to Asia and Europe from KCI following Berkshire Hathaway’s annual meeting. These are staff from very big firms, traveling on company paid business class tickets, but still choosing MCI over OMA. That’s interesting. I can’t imagine the price diffe...

Re: OFFICIAL - New KCI Terminal

Spoke with an acquaintance who flies with some frequency to KC to visit friends. She was a fan of the old terminal. Said the new terminal is beautiful - her word, but just like every other airport. Spoke positively of the cell phone lot, which her friends used. Wow. Other airports should copy KCI a...

Re: KCI Flight Schedule Adjustments

Why doesn't delta have a direct to Chicago? I know it's not a hub but it's one of the few places I have to go that I never go Delta. United, American & to an extent Southwest all have hubs or something like that. United and American don't go to MSP, DTW, ATL, SLC, etc. for the same reason that ...

Re: OFFICIAL - New KCI Terminal

So what the hell do they want? Move to the former two terminals till the new one is torn down and replaces with the old one? Good grief. To those who would complain if they were hung with a new rope, grow up. This is your airport. It's nicer than the old one even if you do have to walk more than a f...

Re: KCI Flight Schedule Adjustments

The current KCI sucks for connecting flight. Three terminals (now two), and not built so much for moving baggage between planes. It could be that with the new terminal, and IF the support structure allows for fast movement of luggage between planes, KCI could be a hub, could. The question is, does i...

Re: College Football

Good question. They'll claim it's because of "weather" but there are far colder/wetter cities than KC hosting outdoor bowl games. KC can have all the bowl games it wants. It just needs a sponsor. No different than all the other named bowls. H&R Block Bowl, Cerner Bowl. Simple as that....

Who'd want to go to Reykjavik? Seems like a boring place unless 1: they have a connecting flight the same day to Europe and 2: It's decently affordable. It will be the 22nd foreign destination and the 14th foreign country for DTW. Yep, connection and/or price. Delta alone has 20 foreign destination...

The underlying opportunity is that international customers in the KC catchment (which includes the area from Omaha to Springfield MO, and from Wichita to Des Moines) now have many options to fly to, say, Bombay or Ankara or Hamburg. All three alliances get them to these locations with two stops...

Re: KCI Flight Schedule Adjustments

What's the deal with Spirit? No more Detroit? Per the Flykci web site they only fly from KCI to Vegas, LA and Orlando. They are almost as flaky as Frontier.
