If it was on the list, they wouldn’t be so stupid as to pick Memphis.
I figure they’ll pick a Eastern commie big city like Boston. They are based in another commie city of Seattle
Yep, they just have puddlejumper turboprops to Charles de Gaulle and Heathrow. Do they use piston planes for Toronto and Cancun?
same with Columbus.
Do they use seaplanes and clear customs in the middle of Lake Erie on the Air Canada flights to Toronto?

The location the Boston has suggested is in East Boston,literally minutes to the airport.

13 of 20 qualify as s#!thole cities, led by NY, Filthadelphia, LA, Chicago, Newark and Versailles on the Potomac.
If they can’t come up with better places, then F’em.
Memphis isn't even on the list. It might make a good warehouse hub.
Tax concessions, cheap land, cash grants, no-interest loans — along with favourable treatment re. zoning, etc. All that, and more, is standard practice in the world of “regional economic development”. Consider, for instance, that pro-sports franchises are routinely offered huge capital-cost inducements (stadium, etc) to set up shop locally. This is a lot bigger deal than an NFL franchise. Do you know what your municipal government has put on the table to seduce Amazon?
Does one have to go through the poorly built tunnel to get to the airport from there?
I flew through Boston a couple of times. One of the worst airports for international connections. It may be better for the locals.
My bet is on Nashville, one of the few “up and coming” cities in the nation.
I was hoping to see Hartford, CT on the list. Then again, I was hoping to buy a pet unicorn for my 7 year old daughter.
