I shall definitely be doing this flight once it comes to fruition as well as the Cancun - Oklahoma City flight which starts in November. I still haven’t gotten around to doing the Cancun - Colorado Springs flight either. But luckily its sticking around unlike Cancun - Memphis which I missed out on and doesn’t look like its returning for now. Almost forgot about Punta Cana - Orlando Sanford which will see international service back again after flair exited Sanford back in 2024! Help I’m so sorry writing an entire paragraph I actually really need to shut up lmao :sob:
