She was able to get one Spain trip, but she was not able to hold the 6 day trips that she wanted. The rest of the 90 hour line was domestic junk. I am still assuming that the increase in flying can only come from one area. Since DAL cut back widebody time and shifted more flying to the narrow bodies, this increase must be coming from more widebody flying. Since we don't have many new aircraft arriving, that's all I can think of. Having just said that, maybe some of those MD-90's are heading our way.
