We need connections to Dulles and JFK. That would increase the number of one-stop destinations accessible from BHM ten-fold.

Spirit has a pretty good little hub for the Americas down at FLL, hopefully that'll induce some good traffic. But, yea, BHM needs more flights to big international hubs. JetBlue would be a great solution.
