For TB, UA had IAD up to 4x daily so there is 10x daily frequencies there across their network (not sure if that compares to 8x or 9x last April). PD would have had more capacity with MIA going until mid-April and PHX until the end of the month - though LAS ran in April 2025 as well. Though TPA and RSW both ended early in April. AC also abandoned all TB flying by April 4th whereas in April 2025, they ran FLL and MCO until the end of the month. WS also did not run RSW this year.
On the international front, I guess CDG and LHR were flat year-over-year (CDG might have even been slightly down??), and PD's sun additions would be counteracted by AC's early wrap up (CUN/PUJ also ran until the end of April last year, TQO might have hung on until mid-April as well).
Speaking of UA, the first mainline 319 flight from ORD arrives Thursday evening with the first outbound flight being Friday morning. It now has been extended to run through the rest of the summer schedule, switching back to all regional airline ops on 25OCT.
AC has also loaded PUJ/CUN to finish for the season on 16APR/17APR, respectively, so a 2-week longer season than this past winter. MBJ and NAS are still set to end the first weekend in April.
