All right, we're happy to take any of the questions you may have for us.
00:04
Yes?
00:07
So when are passengers really going to see a change or a difference in volume and the ability to book more flights and options, things like that?
00:20
So I'll take a crack at that. If I get it wrong, Chris will tell me.
00:23
So we're at 28 flights an hour right now.
00:27
Once the runway gets certified, we're going to increase that to 34 flights an hour.
00:33
So you're going to start to see that, and that's going to be the 9th or 10th.
00:36
We think it's going to be certified, so a little over a week.
00:40
And so then you'll have more capacity coming out of this airport.
00:45
And we're going to hold that then for the summer.
00:47
We're not going to reevaluate the number of flights per hour until we get to October.
00:52
I'll just add that from a customer perspective, what's selling right now is that 34 flight.
01:00
So if you book, you can have confidence that the selling schedules are equal to the 34 that the secretary said,
01:05
so you can book with confidence.
