MSP remains such a sad/weird market for United. Monday morning 739 MSP-EWR is almost completely full, but had 2 assigned in E+ and 3 empty in F with no revenue pax on the waitlist before standbys cleared. Three NRSA flew up front.
In the same vain as EWR is "such a weird market" for DL. UA won't be grabbing much OD traffic out of MSP with the massive DL fortress. I'd imagine the same is true for DL. No doubt you can find "a" flight with an empty FC seat on DL out of EWR but those would be super few & far between just like UA ex-MSP.
