 Hamilton helps bring Northwest to Ithaca
More bad news: The legacies -- the six largest U.S. airlines -- which had relied on the hub and spoke system to make a profit, were losing business to innovative startups and a diminished market and were cutting back services to small cities like Ithaca.
But there was good news too: The task force's market analysis, led by Hamilton, showed that Ithaca was unique, with a mobile population, including students, faculty and many international residents who often traveled overseas.
One in particular, Minneapolis-based Northwest, seemed especially attractive because one of its hub cities, Detroit, would provide the gateway to the western United States and the Far East that the task force members were seeking.
