Dear Southwest Airlines
These are 2 markets we would really like to see in the future from southwest out of MILWAUKEE MKE
MKE-PHL
right now only 2 airlines both with CRJ service (yuck) are flying the route. The prices are significantly higher than say MKE-NYC or MKE-BWI/DCA right now. We'd like to see LUV fly to PHL...
MKE-BNA
Nashville could be a good stop over and the aircraft could continue onto Florida....people from Milwaukee will go to florida anytime anywhere!!!
Thanks for finally coming to MKE!!!

Everyone in Nashville knows there's a demand to come to and through our city. But unfortunately you gotta convince Schedule Planning and Kelly before it'll ever actually happen. So if you guys really want it keep being loud and make sure you let SW know it and be consistent. That's the only way its gonna happen.....Right now BWI is the favorite. But if we had the southbound connections from places like MKE, SDF, IND, PIT, etc. then we could fill planes to cities all over Florida(including RSW and PBI) and vice versa. This is something that has been stated to Southwest time and time again but its slow to take. They're afraid they'll end up like AA but AA was more of a cop out on Crandall's part then it was a problem of ours. Had he put forth the effort and been sincere to his commitment then he could have made it work at BNA just like Northwest made it work at MEM at the same time which is still alive and well with the new Delta. It also didn't help that the idiot Crandall sent 727's to Chattanooga and props to Charlotte....talk about bad aircraft allocation!
