Not likely, as long as we have the code share with AK. DAL hasnt tipped their hand as it regards -900 basing. My guess, and I fly the 73, is to take a look at the bases that have 75s and -800s and you'll have a pretty good idea. SEA is an international launch point that, currently, is fed by Alaska. IMHO, the -900 will be used largely for TRANSCONs and be based in NYC, LA, ATL, and probably
DTW.
