BOS - agree that DL will eventually be back. My guess is they'll try and beat AA to the punch by coming back by late May or into June, but would probably wait no longer than August 17 to come back. Not sure if WN will cede the market to AA and DL, especially considering all the new markets they've ...

From what I'm seeing on DL pilot board, looks like the most recent bid has a lot of openings in SEA with a new A220 base opening up there. I think DL is getting ready for a real fight in SEA. This Seattle resident is ready to take advantage of some good fares (when fully vaccinated). Edit to add th...

CMH-LAX is a sizable market, ideally a route served 2x daily, but it's worth keeping in mind that: -DL & AA don't connect that many passengers on TPAC flights through LAX since they don't run traditional banks at LAX. -Even with a market segment that won't fly NK, which there is IMO at CMH, AA ...

Jump to postDoes anyone know off hand how SEA-CMH is doing? Before COVID, it was supposed to go up to 2x/daily (Summer 2020) with a 320 and 739. It recently went to 4x/week to start 2021, but is 1x daily again and upgauged from the 320 to 739, which is a net gain in seats in the end.

Jump to postWhat's the breakdown of metal used on these flights? The News Hub story says "mainline aircraft like the 737-900", but DTW/JFK-ANC would be a heck of a haul for a 739, wouldn't they? (ATL-ANC is a 763).

Jump to postTalk in the DL Network Thread is LAX may be very gate constrained for some time due to only having T2, hardstands at T3 for RJs, and a handful of gates at TBIT. I wonder if this will factor into why CMH-LAX (and others) has/have been dropped.

Jump to postThere have been a lot of route announcements from other carriers, DL seems more restrained. Is there a reason for this, or is my perception off? That's correct.
