Time is money, precious, and in small supply. I'd rather get where I need to go and get there WHEN I need to be there. I am glad DL has a diverse fleet and can make last-minute subs to allow that to happen.

Last-minute line substitutions at a station like JFK are common. Two hours prior, DL may not have known there was an issue that needed replacing.

Those that have all day to bounce back-and-forth from city to city to prove their "value" to DL can argue what they want, they will never understand the precious value of time.

Edited to add: Your RJ example...if it was the difference between getting home on time, and not, I'd take the RJ. I think the CRJ is Satan's chariot, but it does travel at/about 500 mph. I can read and comprehend the English language and understand disclaimers (which many clearly don't), so I would have no problem with said service. Would I like it? No. Would I run to DL and ask for compensation? Never.
