Notice they're buying 7 jets for 3 routes? Thinking there's more news coming.
The difference is that DL's 76-seat scope is almost maxed out. Skywest has 100's of bigger, heavier MRJ and E2 jets on firm order plus 200 options that they can't fly for anyone other than AS.
Not throwing any punches, and I know you're concerned about DL in SEA Pelican, ..but the real threat to AS is SKW!
