Now for Something Completely Unrelated

Hey All,

So as some of you know I have this thing for commercial aviation. Ever since I was a young 'un I've been fascinated by planes ranging from the B1900 all the way up to the A380. A few years ago, I stumbled upon Airliners.net and have become a daily viewer to get my fix of all varieties of aircraft. Not too long ago, what did my eye spy, but daily service between PVU (that's Provo, UT) and DEN (Denver, CO).

Well, today was the day Frontier 1655, PVU->DEN started service.

So does anyone have any thoughts on this? Is the Salt Lake Metro area going to be the next to enjoy scheduled commercial service to more than one airport? I would love to see it, and can easily see PVU becoming a great alternate, especially if they can get the UTA (Utah Transit Authority) on board with connection to the impending rail service. I doubt we'd see the likes of Southwest moving down there, but I'm putting my money on 18-21 months before United is flying it.
