I’ve lived in Amarillo, Texas for more than 23 years.<\/p>\n

During that time I have not seen such a concerted advertising campaign to pitch airline service out of this city’s international airport.<\/p>\n

Until now.<\/p>\n

American Airlines is about to launch new daily non-stop service from Rick Husband Amarillo International Airport to Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport. It’s a big deal. I’ve said as much already on this blog. I get the attraction for business travelers as well as for families seeking quick and convenient air service to a vacation destination.<\/p>\n

This new service appears to hold considerable promise for the airline and for the city. I appreciate and understand the value of modern, convenient air service. We have it here, to the great credit of City Hall and the city’s Economic Development Corporation.<\/p>\n

That promise must explain the TV advertising I keep seeing.<\/p>\n

It\u00a0 makes me curious as to why.<\/p>\n
