What make you think they would they want to keep flights
a secret? Call them. Also, the airport website may list their
departing flights and the airlines that serve the airport. =R=

I can't imagine WN maintaining a secret flight schedule to keep seats unsold
so that flight crews could smuggle fresh swamp cabbage - soon to be
endangered with the building boom, stone crab claws and pompano to New
Orleans, but.....

I wouldn't waste a call, 'cuz here's a deep secret....

When an airline shows a 9AM first morning flight out of a city in which it
provides substantial service (WN&Tampa), the odds are that none of its a/c
RON ("remain overnight") at the gate or on the ramp, but have returned to
have done what WN does with its a/c at night, service them, at a WN service
point, AKA "hub, but not really to WN. WN figures every angle, from hotel
costs for aircrew to local fuel costs to "ramp rent", etc..

Check WN's schedule and you may find that the first morning arrival (from
anywhere) at Tampa is at about 0845 or so.....
