Or you could buy a Delta ticket. They won't cancel the flight. They'll just delay it for 15+ hours, fly it empty back and forth, even though no one got anywhere, solely so they can say they completed the flight for the DoT.
It isn't cancelled if the flight happened, even though no one was onboard, right? DoT logic.

Well, actually, I agree completely. NK and JB management doesn't want to COMPETE for pilot talent, they can watch them leave to other airlines. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.
