Memphis Airfares Highest In Nation

But, as an added note, since the NWA merger and DAL is becoming dominant in there, you may see more of it as markets and Airlines consolidate and cut service.

Well Troy, Pinnacle has a big base there, has had for years, leftover from the NWA days. DAL has kept a big part of them around for midwest coverage but has cut off a lot of those runs, particularly to the Carolinas, and now taking all that thru ATL.Pinnacle is running a lot of ATL itself as well as DAL on their own stuff, ala the 57's,67's. "A" terminal over there is all RJ, "B" is mostly the big stuff and "C" is a dukes mixture and not fully used. It is the oldest and bad need of refurbishing. They are getting to it slowly. As far as the Airport itself, FedEx is the prime mover over there. I remember in the early 80's, the FedEx parade was from about 2am til 4. That early morning is still a heavy time but there are parades in there now at various times of day. There has been a little slack up on it though since GSO got open but you really can't tell it by looking.

ATC here is known to do that a points they will stretch there approach line all the way up to DYR (Dyersburg) and a long final approach for the 18s. Normally when there using the 18 runways runway 27 is not used very often as normal due to a near miss between 2 NW birds few yrs ago.
