Not sure if this is true, but how much is them holding steady while FL and WN (and YX) have gained by adding seats and routes? If DL was and still remains fairly high load factors without much change in capacity, they would lose market share without a noticeable change in operations. I know they have cut capacity on MEM, but haven't been following their schedule as closely lately. Obviously they have long since abandoned any P2P flying, but their hub traffic has remained relatively steady (ATL has grown over the years, more MD80s than RJs), other than still no SLC.

US struck me as odd, given that they're flying mainline to PHX with RJs to PHL and CLT, yet only 4%.

Interesting numbers though...Quite a change from not too long ago!
