DL does the TANGO
DL officially announced yesterday, after weeks of rumours, that it was introducing a low-cost subsidiary carrier along the lines of TANGO. Will be interesting to read the details and see the route system.

They're still operating their low-fare airline, "express." They're going to overhaul and reintroduce it, though...

Read this in the international edition of the HERALD TRIBUNE and USA TODAY which were distributed Friday/Saturday in Europe. There was also a small item in yesterday's REPORT ON BUSINESS. No links were available since I had no access to the online editions.
