No, they may very well open up - or they may not. Delta is withholding availability from the lower fare classes in hopes of capitalizing on high demand for spring break travel. It's still six months out, so they're not inclined to let people lock in seats for cheap. As the draws closer, if they see which flights aren't filling up quite as much as they'd hoped, they may start to add availability in the lower fare classes.
