This compares what is for sale this week for the stated period versus what was for sale the prior week...NOT the prior year.
How to read:
AAA-BBB 3>2 APR means a reduction in one roundtrip from 3 to 2 for April only
AAA-BBB 4>6 MAY- means an increase from 4 to 6 roundtrips starting in May and continuing
AAA-BBB 3.2>5.6 In some big posts I don't spend the time rounding fractional roundtrips. Fractional roundtrips are usually caused by day of week cancellations, but can also result from a schedule change during the month that is averaged.

It appears that way. Unusal considering Asian carriers get decent loads, but I'm sure the yields have plummeted at LAS lately. Even SQ pulled out quickly.
Surprising. Still bookable in many places, but considering this thread usually "foresees", I'm sad. KE has problem filling up this flight, although return is fine because of LAX stop. LAS is like a tomb for many Asian carriers till now. PR is still running, though.

Enilria - your table is hiding the fact that DL is doing away with mainline service on CVG-LGA and CVG-BOS. Unless I missed something, mainline is gone from all CVG to Northeast flying. The only mainline stations left from CVG are hubs (ATL/SLC), in Florida and out west. Ah, and Paris.

Also don't forget to mention that a lot of flights that were CRJ9s are now CRJ7s, so there is very limited first class seating out of CVG now. Even though the CRJ9 and CRJ7 have about the same number of seats, DL appears to be moving those out of CVG to other stations as well.
I really wish DL would just pull the plug once and for all. That way other carriers will step it up a notch, like AA adding mainline back to CVG-DFW. Being a regular traveler out of CVG, this slow death is nauseating as the quality of service being provided by DL is becoming more and more nothing but a small and cramped coach seat on an RJ with no opportunity for upgrades, etc. So much for a consistent DL experience. If I have to connect, which flying out of CVG it is more and more the case, at least I would like to have a better service experience.
However, on one bright note, it looks like the CVG-CDG flight was upgraded from a 763 to a 764.

Quoting Mariner (Reply 5): If you're determined that we have to go over this old ground again - they let Frontier slip through their fingers.
Frontier isn't "just Frontier" anymore and isn't "just DEN."
And since Southwest CEO Kelly has said that the outcome is probably the best for both entities, he's obviously aware of that.

Unless I missed something, mainline is gone from all CVG to Northeast flying. The only mainline stations left from CVG are hubs (ATL/SLC), in Florida and out west. Ah, and Paris.
To me, that's shocking. I've always thought that if/when DL pulled down the CVG hub, they'd still keep some mainline to Northeast strongholds like LGA, JFK, and BOS. By early January, DL mainline will be down to about 35 flights a day at CVG on a good day. I'm actually surprised by how much of that is made up by Florida flying... Are those mostly onward connections, and not CVG O/D? I find it hard to believe that with the Cincinnati business market, mainline flights to Florida are more valued than mainline flights to other large business centers, such as the NE markets being cut.

High-density, low-yield Florida routes need large capacity planes. High-yield, high-frequency Northeast routes don't.

It looked like it was already suspended for the upcoming Winter and now the resumption is either delayed or CXLD.

Don't doubt it. I think the CVG hub is DEAD DEAD DEAD.
Quoting Mariner (Reply 10): On November 13, Frontier is flying SAN-LAX and a revenue flight, just as, this week, they are flying OKC-MCI as a one-off.
Probably a reposition related to a sports charter.
Quoting Humberside (Reply 16):
Whats the likely reason for these increases, considering the general trend off CVG reductions?
Could be as simple as aircraft positioning. Who knows. It means little in the scheme of things.

Well you right in a way. IIRC I read on here that WN is going to start MSY-STL with 1 flt/day.
Just to analyze the route list for WN:
BOI Current F9 route
DTW Current F9 route
IAD Former F9 route and UA hub
OKC Current F9 route
ONT Former F9 route
F9 ties to all those routes in that they are either current routes or probably under consideration for resumption like MSY which was recently announced to be resumed by F9.

I have a hard time imagining Frontier going back to a couple of those.
I suppose ONT might be possible, but not necessarily from DEN.

Below is what I wrote in the last OAG thread which went unresponded to. So I'm reposting it here:
On another note, effective November 1, DL is once again yanking the only 757 on ATL-IND-ATL and from what I can find, it's going to ATL-SAT-ATL. Can anyone tell me if that is the case, if so, why is SAT getting our 757? With the exception of Tuesday and Wednesday, that flight went out with very high passenger loads. Certainly past the MD88 capacity.

Loads don't matter to DL. In their grand plan, since the world revolves around ATL, eventually all planes greater than an RJ will be routed solely on ATL to ATL, and all other cities will be RJs.
