Sorry on my title. I know Western did not fly the routes I listed. I think DL could make money on both routes. DL is very weak on the west coast / west coast travel. If WN runs 10 737's a day LAS-RNO - DL could add 3 RJ's. DL could also add 1 flt a day LAS-HNL. Western and DL did fly LAX-FAT-RNO and LAX-RNO with full meal service in FC.
Times change.
I know HNL-LAS is a leisure route, but if the other carriers are making $$$, why not DL?
