And by the way, everytime I flew some of those routes they were asking for volunteers since they were overbooked.
They are only booked full when I need to go there
. All kidding aside though, as a MEM native I hate to see what is happening but we all know that MEM is more of an airtran or SWA city than DAL. It is just one of the lower income cities and people don't travel much. When they do travel they demand ultra cheap fares and it just isn't supporting the hub.
I know DAL wouldn't pull out if they were making a profit......Wait this sounds about like the cargo birds a few years back...aww shucks
Either way it sucks for those of us left trying to make our way to work.
