While JFK’s location is not ideal for a hub American Airlines has a huge hub 90 miles away in Philadelphia and United has one even closer in Newark. Speaking of Newark Airport, I concede that while to New Yorkers it might as well be in Wyoming it’s the hometown airport for the millions of residents in northern and central New Jersey.In addition to creating jobs, hubs are a major source of civic pride. Atlanta residents, maybe the biggest civic boosters in the country, take immense pride from having the world’s busiest airport, never mind the fact that many of the passengers just change Delta flights and never leave the airport. Note: Seattle is the main hub and corporate HQ for Alaska Airlines. |
