Hoping it's the truth.

Baja.

Two questions:
Who is Gramm?
How many FOs for 7-10 airframes?

Gramm is the number two guy in flight ops. I like any growth rumors but I have never heard Delta discuss pilot basing needs in terms of airframes. Airframes flow through the entire system and don't have a base. 100 percent of the time they discuss staffing requirements in a domicle based on departures per day. I hope the rumor is true but it's odd terminology.

Looks like Juno and Fairbanks sucked so bad with Delta Connection that we are going to daily year-round service on the 737-800.

They needed to free up the SKYW lift for AS.

Delta Connection hasn't even done either of those routes and thats not what is currently in the system. Compass FAI and Skywest JNU, except for the summer. I think the press release was announcing year round service, not the fact they are going to be on 737-800s.
