Delta has historically been rather gun shy to Asia from NYC and I don't necessarily see that changing but hope to be proven wrong. The other thing to remember is that we hold a finite number of slots at JFK so we can't just add all of these flights without securing more slots or trading other profitable flying to do it. And finally, consider how many frames it takes to operate a single ULH route. When you think of it in those terms, 20 aircraft isnt much especially the need for spares as well. I know we have options for more; again I'd be pleasantly surprised to see us exercise them.
You obviously missed what our CEO said in December
