Thanks for the link. A few points I found noteworthy:

Our biggest rival in Ed's mind: SWA (perhaps shows where Ed wants to expand), this dovetailed with another bullet where he mentioned Delta can charge a 20% domestic premium.

Alternate revenue
MRO: $750M now to exceed $1B
AMEX: $3B

International ownership (from the conference and Google)
49% Virgin Atlantic
49% AeroMexico
2.9% GOL
10% AF-KLM
Codeshares with Alitalia (who oddly enough is 49% owned by Etihad) and Korean

He really talked up Delta.com and called Delta a technological leader .

He called the CS100 a 110 seat product, I thought it was lower than that. Changing the seating configuration, misspeak on his part, or am I mistaken on the CS100's capacity?
