a big part of DLs success is the fact ATL is 2 hours or less flight time from 70% of the US’s population. That many short flights leads to lots of penalty laps.
Lol i knew that was coming.
Yeah actually that makes a lot of sense. Honestly I can live with the amount of flying we do now that EDP is a thing. Pads the paycheck nicely and I've never done one of those mythical ATL long sits that people talk about. But wow, my dream ATL schedule is every other base's OT scraps.
