This month marks the 10th Anniversary of the BA190/191 route - Central Texas' first trans-continental route.
Correct me if I'm wrong - but, BA has flown the following on the route: -B788 (inaugural months before being upgraded in summer 2014). -B789 -B787-1000 -B773 -B744 -A350-900 -A350-1000 (current equipment) |

An interesting article about Delta’s future in AUS. The Points Guy interviewed Amy Martin who is Delta’s VP of North America network planning.
Delta confident Austin expansion will pay off as it plugs Texas route map gap “She acknowledged that Texas is a ‘hole’ in Delta's route map.” "[Austin] is well positioned in the middle of the country so that you can drive some good, strong connectivity," “Martin was mum on where Delta plans to fly to next from Austin. The main focus, she indicated, will continue to be catering to local travelers and where they want to go.” |

Unlike American and Southwest, Delta takes a very calculated approach to route expansions. |

SkyWest contracts with Alaska, American, Delta, and United on small, regional routes (for the most part). |

It appears as though SkyWest believes there is enough traffic at AUS to open a crew domicile here. As it stands now all the SkyWest/Delta Connection RJ flights will be operated with E175's. The one daily CVG flight will be on a CRJ900. What makes this interesting is that pilots will be based at AUS as well as cabin crew. |
^^^Is this some sort of hint at an unannounced expansion in regional connecting traffic may be coming to AUS?

AUS is adding a temporary hold room facility located on the eastside of the maintenance ramp for hardstand operations.
...The project will add a temporary gate hold room facility that provides early gate capacity to enhance operational resiliency. Also included in the project scope are six narrow body gate positions. Some of the new features of the space are: Restrooms Vending machines Circulation for arrivals and departures Bussing operation from the Barbara Jordan Terminal The project will be located on the west side of the airfield. https://www.austintexas.gov/AUSJourney Exciting news. Curious if AUS still plans on using the east apron for hardstand op's as well. |
