DL had been running anti-ME3/Turkish ads on local Atlanta media. Radio stations, cable TV and the AJC have all run DL ads about employment abuses on those airlines, government subsidies, etc. The campaign is very much aimed at getting average customers in this market not to fly those airlines. IIRC, the ads have specifically asked the flying public to avoid the airlines. The ads have recently been pushed off the air by the non-stop Handel/Ossoff ads, but now that we've left or two months of punishment for whatever we did, the DL ads will likely continue.
