Us savvy travelers could do it quicker, I've no doubt but I'm sure these MCT are designed for infrequent travelers.
Worse than connecting from T1 to D46 in ATL? Before asking the question I looked at the map on Delta.com and that sure doesn't seem to indicate any good reason for a 70 minute domestic-domestic MCT. I was actually surprised that the trip I booked for next year was so close to the MCT when I saw this thread is the only reason I ask.
