The off-peak season has been quite weak (hence they are pulling it) but during this past winter (southern summer) season, the Delta flight actually achieved the second highest load factors in the LAX-AKL market (just behind NZ, and better than UA and AA) even with the larger gauge (Latam A350)
Yeah my LAX-AKL I think had 200+ empty seats. I think a number airlines overestimated AKL during Winter.

miles wise was great deal. 90k RT (vs 90k OW) booked three days before departure. Of course GUC cleared to D1 instantly.
