Does anybody out there have any idea when Delta might reschedule the flights that were cancelled subsequent to 9/11. . In my experience, (I'm a PM and fly quite a bit throughout the year), traffic and fares are usually down this time of year. But fares have remained relativelly high and it is getting more and more difficult to book seats. I would think the airlines would be anxious to get the planes back in the air and the employees back on the payroll.</font>
Read this again carefully and think! The effects of 9/11 have been horrible. However, if you really think about it something tells me this is just an excuse to trim the fat. You are right. I don't see any GREAT DEALS on airfares and I have NOT been on any empty planes lately. Less overhead, higher fares, decent passenger load (at least on the flights I have been on), plus money from the government. Sounds interesting to me.
