The MEC once spent a chunk of change to analyze Delta’s hubs and pilot basing with the intent to show Delta could expand pilot basing opportunities and improve revenue by reducing reliance on ATL. The results showed ATL was the economic engine that drove Delta airlines and if anything needed to be expanded.

You really don’t read all my posts do you? I would suggest however you set up an appointment with senior management to tell them how poorly they are running the airline. They could use your expertise.

Considering how they're filling the trips these days, they could hardly do worse. Stoney might have some good pointers.

AA buildup was disastrous for many reasons, but DL is taking the conservative approach doing adds every few months starting on RJ’s and up-gauging to mainline. Another step towards hub status for AUS. After the new concourse it will be Delta’s largest station that is not designated as a hub (yes larger than MCO).

DL will continue to start new routes on OO and upguage to mainline as planes and routes become available/proven.
