Delta is larger by Market share than WN. (and maybe flights, it would be close)

Anyways, don't look for Delta to fly any new route AS has, that defeats the point of outsourcing. Also more dropping of routes and AS magically adding them back the next day will likely continue. (that is till the pilots union, hopefully, gets better SCOPE language in C12.)
