After looking at the map again, I'm not sure Delta is going to fly those routes. I mean, we don't fly Mexico City-Paris or Mexico City-AMS, although the map implies we do.
This is who is flying the MCO-CDG flight:
Air France to offer Orlando-to-Paris flights - Orlando Sentinel

There is no scheduled DTW-PEK flight right now by anyone.

I agree some could be codeshares but that one is new, for whatever carrier it is.

China Southern was going to start the route in 2009, but delayed it. Could be the economy, could be the 787 they were going to use was delayed:

So I just read that CLEAR is coming back from Bankruptcy. This is the "pay for security ease" company that enabled you to have your own line for a fee. The fee is only $179 a year and although not at all airports why can't ALPA pay that out of our %2 dues and we wouldn't have to worry about getting our family jewels or fun bags (for the ladies) harrased? I am sure if they got a contract from the likes of ALPA they would instantly have enough cash to open at all the major airports.

I think the MCO-CDG is an AirFrog flight..

Are you sure that having that laser fired into your eye is safe?
