The Canaries are a package holiday charter destination, it's like flying to Orlando or Panama City, FL. You just have to be better than Spirit/Ryanair at that point.

DL flyers are a cult, you can safely ignore any claims they have to superior hard product. Soft can be better than some others (KL, UA, AA I'm looking right at you) but after Crowdstrike they should be focusing on operational issues. KL too had a complete meltdown, I had the joy of watching it unfold live at Schiphol.
