When I was about 15 I was flying to a friend's New Years eve party -- from MSY to Montgomery, AL. the southeast got fogged in and I ended up spending the night at DL's expense in Jackson, MS. Early the next morning I was the only passenger on a DL or PA DC-8 to MSY that had landed in Jackson the night before. At that time DL and PA had an interchange to Europe (London, I think). I believe that it was PA equipment and picked up a DL crew in either WAS of NYC for the domestic leg. This was in the mid-1960s.
