Now one hopes that traffic increase will help Southwest remain in DSM, a far better alternative to MSP.
Actually, by contrast, it would be interesting to see the passenger numbers for OMA, as it is closer to DSM than MSP. Prior to TRS being bought by SWA, most DSM passengers had to make the 110 mile drive to OMA to pick up a SWA flight.
Hopefully it will mean getting some bigger planes,and new destinations.
