DTW shouldn't be a bad commute, if you're commuting from a Delta served city.

I disagree on the DTW option ... especially if coming to/from Atlanta. DTW is a hub for Delta and while there are flights practically every hour, everyone that I have been on have been packed full with 10+ non-revs waiting at the gate.

Why? There is a lot of deadhead activity currently happening between these city pairs. It may not be forever but there is always 1 if not 4 crews grabbing positive space to go pick up a trip in DTW.

Currently Delta is using MDs, 73s, and the occassional 75/76 on these routes best I can tell.
