HMMMMMM.....I've been on some tiny planes (maybe about 12-14 seats) with no FA even though it was a regularly scheduled commercial airline domestic USA flight. This was an AA regional carrier and there was only a curtain separating the cockpit (before 9-11) with the co-pilot doing the safety demo. The ones that I clearly remember were not interstate routes.

I don't think DL would fly revenue passengers without a FA, but I'm not convinced that the regulations don't permit it.
