SLC Last Bank of Departing Flights Moving to 8 PM on MTW & SAT

Looks like Delta is tweaking its schedule in/out of SLC. Starting in September, I noticed that the inbound East Coast flights arrive earlier in SLC (around 7:00 pm) and the last bank of departing flights (to West Coast) leave SLC around 8:00 pm. BOS to SLC and PHL to SLC now leave for SLC at 4:10 pm and 3:30 pm, respectively.

I looked pretty closely and this seems to be a Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Saturday deal. Also, a few evening departures out of the East Coast to SLC don't run every day on these dates (e.g. MCO, EWR).

I think this is a good plan if it helps Delta more efficiently manage its fleet and costs. Generally, I actually like the earlier departures from the East Coast and the last bank of SLC departing flights leaving at 8:00 pm.

Any changes on your favorite route? Any other routes besides SLC change on MTW and SAT?
