And re. flights, it makes sense that NWA would have much better connections, given the importance of Walmart/suppliers/affiliates. For years Walmart had some "design center" in SoHo/Tribeca area, which probably accounts for all their hipster, coastal elitist cred (sarcasm). They probably have other regional offices requiring regular connections.

Walmart's e-commerce operations (walmart.com) are/were also split between Jersey City and San Bruno, CA. And obviously being such a large corporation, professional services from the major cities travel back and forth often.
