Where on DLNET is this? Is he meaning going to TravelNet to view the changes? Or is there a listing of all of the equipment changes on DLNET? I've scoured the website and couldn't find anything.
Thanks ...
I know someone else mentioned this but from the
Press Release.
Delta Continues New York Growth with Expanded Caribbean, Bermuda, Florida Service
Airline adds new and expanded flights to 10 popular destinations from LaGuardia, JFK
May 21, 2012
NEW YORK, May 21, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Delta Air Lines (NYSE: DAL) today announced new and expanded service to 10 popular destinations in the Caribbean, Bermuda and Florida from LaGuardia Airport and John F. Kennedy International Airport, continuing its historic expansion in New York.
The new flights, which will begin in late 2012 and early 2013, are in addition to Delta's previously announced expansion at New York-LaGuardia, where the airline is adding more than 100 new flights to 26 new destinations this summer.
