Bill,
Thank you for the information about the new schedules. As a traveler out of Dulles, I am extremely disappointed that you are eliminating Orlando, Vegas, and Tampa. How are these cities not profitable? The other airlines I will now have to fly charge for seats, bags, drinks, etc. which I will now have to pay. If you increased the ticket price,to these cities, I and other travelers from this area would be willing to pay, because we would be paying what the other airlines are charging us for everything else.Have you been to the DC area? We who live in VA and DC do not want to take 2-3 hours to drive to BWI, pay for parking, possibly lodging when we have to fly to a business meeting or for pleasure. By the time I add the cost of gas, lodging, parking,, food, I'll pay the additional ticket price any day. Have you thought about those factors? In fact, I only hear and see Southwest ads to cities from BWI and not IAD. Why don't you advertise service from Dulles? I just don't understand, so please help with a response. Hopefully, this is a short term decision and I will see more flights from Southwest out of IAD. In the meantime, what airline do you recommend I fly out of IAD to Orlando and Tampa? Non-stop Vegas, I only have one choice, United. And you can't raise the Vegas ticket price competing with United? Thank you for going to Denver, Just like flying out of Dulles on Southwest! Thank you for your time!
