DFW has been begging Southwest to start flying out of the airport with no complaints from American Airlines. The airport has huge billboards all over the metroplex asking Southwest to come to DFW. Southwest says that flying out of DFW is not in their business plan. It wouldn't be in mine either if I had a monopoly like Southwest does at Love Field. Like I said earlier--AA is usually the bully around here, but this time it's Southwest. The original Wright ammendment agreement was to close both of the airports in Dallas and Fort Worth. Fort Worth closed their airport (Southwest Field) but Dallas and Southwest got the Wright Ammendment revised to allow Love Field to stay open for commercial flights within Texas. AA had little to do with that--they would have preferred to have Love field closed to commercial traffic.
