Can someone tell Delta they dont need to run their entire operation through ATL?

*Maybe*.... it's not all about you.

Maybe.... other people have already booked the "reasonably priced" seats on the MSP and SLC connections because they are much more efficient and on the way - and now only higher fare class remain.

Maybe... the ATL connection is now cheaper because just like you - nobody wants to go that way.

Or maybe... they just aren't as good at running an airline as you. I suppose anything is possible.
