How do you know how AA's service will impact DL?
DL to SLC? That would be a 1000+ mile haul on a CR7/CR9, I highly doubt we would see that happen. DL doesn't even serve SGF (Springfield, MO) from SLC so I'd say zero chance for COU. If anything beyond ATL I would think DTW or MSP are possibilities. I guess it would be nice for skiiers in that area though ^
