Stay tuned for Sept 12th. Supposedly Lufthansa Group will be announcing new service specially to a North American city with no current European service. Not sure if it includes Canada. I would imagine we're a contender as we have a decent amount of traffic to Germany and the Governor/Justin has been...

Especially beach related. Might just mean more flights to places we already beach flights or something ...

Re: KCI Flight Schedule Adjustments

Word on Airliners.net is that Indianapolis is no longer being considered by BA since Cincinnati was added. Too close to existing BA stations, too small of a catchment region and a shortage of suitable aircraft. However, the state is increasing the incentives slush fund by an additional $5 million. F...

Re: OFFICIAL - New KCI Terminal

Ugh. Isn't united like the least used major carrier at kci? Yes but that position could change if they decided to add more flight. The lounge space with the RFP is next to American’s gates. I don’t see it going to anyone but American or 3rd party. UA doesn't really do focus cities or P2P routes and...

Re: KCI Flight Schedule Adjustments

Delta seat count (at least for June 2022)

MCI is now the largest (non-hub/non-focus city) station for Delta in the Midwest. We might move up a spot or two this year as DL is planning to add more frequencies.

Re: 12th and Broadway site: RFP for mixed use

I must be confused and misreading this. Aside from the park section, what is the grievance? They're still building the expansion in the parking lot aren't they?
