Quoting Positiverate (Reply 1): There's already a thread on this; do a search and you can find the posts. |
Quoting Planespotting (Reply 3): AirTran has done a lot for both airports and doesn't need some near-chapter 11 southern carrier to come in and start screwing shit up for them. |
Quoting STLGph (Thread starter): The Delta flood into Illinois also serves Champaign to Cincinnati. |
Quoting Planespotting (Reply 3): i really hope AirTran can up against the DL CRJ's out of MLI and BMI. AirTran has done a lot for both airports |
Quoting STLGph (Thread starter): Delta Air Lines has discontinued service from Moline to Cincinnati and replaced service from Moline to Atlanta. |
Quoting IADLHR (Reply 7): Is it possible that DL really would like to get some connecting passengers to ATL who are going to the warmer climate during the winter from the midwest. The people would otherwise connect at ORD |
Quoting Access-Air (Reply 9): As for Delta snagging International traffic to/from Europe thru Atlanta connections, I really dont see it happening too much as This area is UA AA country and both airline adequately serve most of Europe thru ORD. |
Quoting STLGph (Thread starter): Air Tran serves both airports with its 717 |
Quoting Lastordu (Reply 11): I know off topic but dose Air Tran have any RJ anymore? Thanks and sorry about being off topic. |
Quoting DAL767400ER (Reply 12): because FL (and Frontier as well) deemed CRJs to be the absolute worst aircraft to operate LCC operations with. |
Quoting Cubsrule (Reply 5): Quoting STLGph (Thread starter): The Delta flood into Illinois also serves Champaign to Cincinnati. Only because it's subsidized |
Quoting Cubsrule (Reply 5): Quoting STLGph (Thread starter): Delta Air Lines has discontinued service from Moline to Cincinnati and replaced service from Moline to Atlanta. This one's totally logical. Some 50% of people connecting at CVG was connecting on to ATL. |
Quoting Jetdeltamsy (Reply 6): I think AirTran has developed a lot of loyal State Farm Insurance business. |
Quoting IflyI (Reply 14): Add to that the fact that DL currently flies out of PIA |
Quoting DAL767400ER (Reply 10): First, there are several destinations in Europe that neither UA nor AA serves from ORD. |

Quoting 727LOVER (Reply 21): I'm sorry, but I don't believe Valujet was ANYWHERE NEAR Ch 11. |
Quoting Planespotting (Reply 18): yes but what are the odds that there are a lot of people from the quad cities or bloomington and surrounding comms who want to go to moscow, athens, johannesburg (via codeshare), etc... |
Quoting Access-Air (Reply 23): .....Personally I think that Delta is worried about the AA customer loyalty and the competition in That market |
Quoting Access-Air (Reply 23): The DC9s BAC 111s 737-200 and BAe146s are superior to ANY regional jet they can produce....even some of the new E-170/190 |
Quoting DAL767400ER (Reply 22): Then you better read some more info about it. After their crash in the Everglades, Valujet was in a very bad situation, as passengers lost their faith in the safety of the airline and avoided it. Not to mention that the temporary shutdown by the FAA wasn't helpful either. |
Quoting STLGph (Thread starter): Airport officials at each city are worried that the appearance of Delta will mean the end of Air Tran service. |
Quoting Afrikaskyes (Reply 20): You would be surprised how many passengers fly daily from PIA to places like AVL, AGS, CHS, CAE, CHS, etc..... |
