Just one month from now DFW will finally have Air France Cargo. We have been working to get Air France to come to DFW for years. The time is right, the market is primed and we look forward to having key new service to Europe.

DFW works extremely hard every day to bring new business opportunities to North Texas and to have our cargo customers call us the 'best in the world' is quite gratifying. Cargo helps propel the North Texas economy, bringing in new jobs with the addition of new cargo service, new products on every flight and new opportunity for local and international businesses.

D/FW stands ready with 22 available gates and $22 million in incentives. And yet they chose to walk past it and go to a congested, expensive hub that's controlled by United and Frontier.

We are happy to welcome Spirit to DFW International Airport. Spirit will add to an already impressive grouping of airlines to offer a great service at an affordable price. I can't wait and I know the public will be looking forward to the new service that is on its way.

The trade between Asia and the United States is very, very strong.
