Sorry, a little off topic, but DL needs to do something about DL 253, 803 & 703 from CVG-SLC. They're always oversold! Those MD-90s (253 & 803) aren't big enough. On March 11th I was on 253 and everything for the evening was overbooked. I'm flying 703 on March 25th, and every flight is oversold. Last month I was on 253 and they changed the airplane to a 757 because they were overbooked by 37 people! It was annoying because we were delayed over an hour while they tried to find 757 pilots to take us to SLC. I think they just need to permanently change Fl 253 to a 757.
