Master Thread: Delta Flight Diversions
DL 1870 today, scheduled flight GCM to ATL......once the inbound flight landed app automatically updated that the flight would be diverting to MCO on the return......is it a crew issue? I don't think DL has a crew base in MCO so did not figure that would be normal and surely they would not schedule a diversion that far away from ATL. It surely is not a fuel issue either because the 737-800 range is much longer than even the GCM to ATL.
Would appreciate anyone's thought or input.
