No way this flight had any hope of making money for DL stockholders.
Wow, you seem to know so much.....why aren't you CEO???

Delta is operating at over a 90% Load Factor this weekend FYI....one flight having a light load doesn't matter too much. The return flight was booked 147/149....not too shabby but what does DL know? Send in your resume because you seem to think you know it all.
