If you're a line holder, you probably have AVL on your schedule cause Delta has cut the added number of flights for August due to low demand.
It depends on what next summer looks like. At this point, it wouldn't make sense to furlough if we're close to normal capacity for next summer. If next summer looks like this summer, even at 600-700 flights per day, then some furloughs are likely in the cards.
The company did say that they'd run early-outs before furloughs, so that will
probably be the first sign that we're in trouble.
We lucked out that Compass (
) and GoJet were already on their ways out with Delta, so Delta was able to cut some DCI capacity by dropping those two airlines first.
