Southwest Unveils Milwaukee Schedule

Effective November 1st, Southwest Airlines will begin its new Milwaukee service.

3 Daily Roundtrips to Baltimore/Washington – Marshall Airport
3 to Kansas City
2 to Las Vegas
2 to Orlando
1 to Phoenix
1 to Tampa Bay
Direct or Connecting service to an additional 49 cities

Southwest will be competing with Midwest Airlines, with 90 daily departures out of Milwaukee, and Airtran, with 34. Midwest has been slowly subcontracting its work and returning its airplanes, and is not in the best position to fight. Airtran Airways, however, is. AirTran and Southwest will be fighting especially for the Milwaukee to Baltimore-Washington route. Both have a good presence at BWI Marshall, and with three daily nonstops each, something may have to give.

Either way, things are going to get very interesting. Southwest is on the offensive. Hmm….does Airtran play Guitar Hero?
