Since something like this is now considered too expensive and too hard to keep up to date (which wasn't a problem with PMNW IME), EF was the best substitute, but of course that is gone too now.

DL used to provide these in a holder on the FC bulkhead.

Originally, they showed connecting itineraries from A to C.

Then they decided they could cut the size of the booklet by only showing single hops, so the user had to manually search combinations of A to B followed by B to C.

Then they did away with them altogether.

I believe that I still have a few of these, but they might be out-of-date.
