I've got to think they are delaying word as long as possible to give competitors less time to react. Since this airplane will be unique to Delta among the major carriers in the US they probably want it to be as disruptive as possible.

Or it could be because of the Boeing suit.

Not so sure about that. I believe the initial cadre of LCAs have been hired for the CSeries despite not knowing where the 1st domicile will be.

I doubt that. They will not make a final choice until they get next summers marketing plan. I have watched them change basing choices in the week before a bid is posted. If they knew for sure they would put it out. It would make life easier for them. They once closed the L1011 category in LA and reopened it less than 6 months later.

Virtual base anyone? That flexibility would never benefit the company.

Me too. With an eye to what would benefit the company and why they might want it.
