I think the angst (if you'd call it that) is that the press release sounds like "New Exciting Service at Delta" where as people who remember are like, "oh, we used to do that.. and that.. and that one..." so it's not growth - just reshuffling of the existing jets. Because when JFK-CPH was cancelled, that plane went somewhere else, we didn't sell it - and the pilots just flew the new route. Now it's back to being flown, so the plane is coming from another market, with the same pilots switching routes. It's not growth is what people are getting at.
