If you are in a plane crossing a runway shouldn't you be looking to make sure it is clear anyway, even if you think you have clearance? At least glance that way before hammering the gas.

This is correct. Haven’t been for awhile

At least for Allegiant they have had some of the lowest cancel rates in recent years. That said if I HAD to be somewhere by a certain time, I wouldn’t fly a ULCC.

Got in 40 minutes early but our gate is in use.
Bags took way too long.
Honestly it was a great experience and I wouldn’t hesitate to fly them again if it made sense.

Got the comfy seat. Normal seats with middle seat blocked with a tray in the seat. Leg room is much better than I expected. Aisle is a lot wider than Southwest. 2 people can get by each other easier
Tray table is small. Pocket in back of seat is basically non existent

A couple spots had what looked like parts of rainbows coming out of the top of clouds but there isn’t any rain around. Really odd

How long did it take Illinois to double track? 15 years? It was so slow

At some point they need figure rail out here. If it means passenger old track it won’t be cheap but hopefully they can figure it out at some point

Biggest problem will always be speed. Unless they have a plan to run faster. Some of those they are proposing are much longer than just “overnight”

How much was it?

I think they did a pretty uninspiring job on it. But I’m more interested in how they play than how they look.

You still have to have demand no matter how nice the airport is.

Looks like it was at the end of the runway when it was turning to go to the terminal.

It is just tucked inside waiting to come out as a surprise on reveal day...
But I really hope is it and there isn't a collar.

That's one reason I like to know the line. Gives context on CITY vs another team I might not know how good they are.
A lot of the other "betting" stuff comes up in a non betting capacity anyway in game preview/predictions when people say what they think will happen, ie final score/goal scorer
comment in response to

Doesn't matter to me (sponsorship/ad wise) as long as there isn't a huge segment on betting. If you want to mention a line, like CITY is a +150 favorite for context or something, that fine. But anything more than that someone can find a betting podcast for.

They announced it the same time as STL/MCI-PVR and MCI-CUN. So assume it’s probably related. That said I haven’t seen STL/MCI listed on Apple/Vacation express’s schedule like they do for other routes so that’s a bit confusing.

is there are reason your images on your site have i0.wp.com in them. They don't load for me on my system (it blocks short urls) but if i take that out of the string it loads fine. I just have to do each one individually.
as in like this (without the I0.wp.com)
