Re: DCA slots

Southwest had none prior to its acquisition of AirTran. It was known they were interested for some time, but open slots are rare to come by.

JetBlue got their initial allotment of slots in a deal with American about 2 years ago. Both JetBlue and Southwest have been waiting for some time for the DOT to resolve that larger issue with Delta/USAirways so another round of slots could open up.

As for routes, while nothing firm will be announced for months, expect a few more Boston & Florida (Orlando & Ft. Lauderdale) flights.
