In ORD they are slowly cutting markets as they are sharing with UAL and can't really compete. Same with Phoenix and SWA. LAX is one of their least profitable hubs, actually if you read between the lines they are actually losing money there and in JFK they made money for the first time this past quarter, they've never made any money there since 9/11.

Fun fact about SEA, Delta actually carries more international freight there than FedEx.
AS is 51% market share of SEA. Is there a difference between market share and passenger traffic? I figure those to be the same thing.
