I agree with Ac's DFW route, it is probably one of the weaker YVR routes, since DFW is such a fortresss hub for AA and they have had this route exclusive for so long. But for their CRA aircraft it doesn't break the bank either.

The thing with infrastructure projects is that they are way more long term, and look past blips. The airline industry has been in tough times so many often, you can't make all decisions based on the current, you have to really look way ahead. The juel line is a necessary imporvement and will be great for them in the long term, would be extremely shortshighted to pause it.

I also have formal confirmation that the Pier D project is restarting and the plan is to finish it as soon as they can, so it will not be a skeleton for long. Whether it is open for service or not I'm not sure, but the construction will be finished.
