I want to believe in a Delta base in Austin being announced in October, but with DL’s aversion to opening new pilot bases I don’t see how they will plan to open a pilot base with ~*checks notes*~ 21 departures on the 320/321 fleet tomorrow. The 73n has 9 departures and the 220 has 8. If all of those were on the 320 along with the new additions (CUN, PSP, MIA, SDJ, whatever else they added) the maybe it’s a possibility, but with 21 departures I don’t see it happening. Maybe they want the schedule reliability or they have more gates they picked up and have a few more announcements, but I am not getting my hopes up. It’s fun to dream though.
