Yep. Especially when a lot of people just want to go gamble, waste time sitting in front of a magic kingdom or switching between different planes coming from overseas into a hub airport, then switch to a plane that will take one home to the right airport.
Hope this might lower some of the fairs for rides along the coast. I used to do a lot of traveling up and down the coast in Plane, trains and automobiles, so any way to save money is a positive to me.
