Actually, I priced some tickets for personal travel post May 1 Delta seat block.

I was shocked big-D was by far the cheapest seat out there. (When I gotta pay, $$$ matters) That was a first.

Not sure if that means anything.
According to "top men" they had to dump the ticket price to fill the airplanes. They expect (hope) yields to recover midsummer

Must be market specific. Just did a search for mid July on a typical leisure route my family does and prices are higher than I’ve ever seen.

Leisure routes are full. The 75% of our other routes are not

Well, so far, Memorial Day weekend doesn’t look like it’s going to have a big meltdown. Only 1 cancellation so far (DEN-LAS). Lots of GSs and good weather is helping.

Looks like that was a charter, might not have been an operational cancellation

Yup the Delta operation has held up very well for the first time in a long time on a holiday weekend. Pretty impressive. Kudos to the training department for getting folks back online quick. Captain upgrades start in June so FO shortage could return

plenty of FOs coming back from NQAT should help this

I think it was the Tiger Team from the last meltdown that really saved the day.

Or maybe they just scheduled for the pilots they have?
