I'm sure there'll be a ton of flights added to ATL, JFK, and SLC. What they fail to mention is all the cuts, cut BNA, BTR, MSY, XNA, STL, ORD, and pretty much anywhere BUT to Delta's "new" hubs.
Pure speculation on my part but I think in 1 to 1.5 years MEM and CVG will be ghost towns like PIT and STL.
Why would places like BNA get cut? There's 6 a day on NW to DTW, and they are all overbooked. I would know, I commute it every week. The ATL flights are the same way, about 8 a day, and all loaded. I dont see BNA losing much service FWIW.
