  1. I take the commuter flights Monday/Thursday 3x a month.

    There is a significant difference in the capacity from 2 years ago.

    Im top tier on American and there are plenty of days I don’t get upgraded going to CLT now. Was always a guarantee before

    Hate to disappoint but GSP messaged me back and said there is no upcoming service scheduled for Boston and that this is simply a charter flight for Boston College due to the Clemson game. :( The team will be flying back tomorrow. That’s why it says 10-27-2019 on the schedule. 

    Yup. He says that would make sense.

     

    what a buzzkill 

  3. Just confirmed with my buddy who is a Delta pilot. That means it’s being added!

    I fly up there nearly every week. Going to change my life not having to connect now.

    thats a lot of hours I get at home now, instead of sitting at CLT

    I love the CLT airport and having direct access to so many domestic and international markets. And, the availability of flights seems to grow almost monthly along with the airport itself.  Because of that, I fly AA almost everywhere with the exception of Lufthansa to Europe.   

    But, given the choice, I wish we were a Delta hub.  They do  seem to have a nicer experience than AA.  Maybe AA will improve and get up to speed, who knows.  I don’t take SWA, Frontier, Spirit or the other airlines.  Allegiant seems to have a following, but the fly from Concord north of the city.

    There are always outliers, but I don’t see a lot of people passing up  direct flights from CLT on larger aircraft to hop a CRJ out of GSP.  

    I fly 4x a month for work. I can’t tell you how much less stressful it is taking a 45 minute connecting flight from GSP-CLT. Than dealing with morning traffic coming into CLT and parking.

    Beyond that, most who travel often will take the connecting flights for additional segments. Much easier to earn status quickly. I have EP through AA that way.

    I generally get home 15-30 minutes later if I connect rather than drive. Plus I can work the entire time.

    your theory might be true for casual travelers looking to save $50.

    Where is JetBlue? :angry: I want my Boston flights gosh darn it.

     

    Cant see them adding a major airline that only has one route to and from GSP, but who knows. Would be AA or Delta 

    I have great status with AA from flying to Boston 3x a month. At this point I would take any carrier direct and start over with points.
