When will DL codeshares be available for purchase?
Does anyone know when the CO codeshares on DL metal will actually be available for sale? I'm looking to do SLC->SEA or ABQ->SEA as part of a CO itinerary and it will probably be a lot cheaper to buy it as part of a circle trip than to buy separate one way tickets in the middle of an open jaw from EWR.

I don't know when the actual dates start, but I was searching CO's site via schedule for LAX in early September, and was supprised to see some flights connecting via ATL. Upon closer examination they say "flight xxxx operated by Delta Airlines". So to answer your question sometime on or before September 9th.

I was searching for flights on July 24th - 27th and saw several codeshare delta flights.

It looks like there are a number of DL flights loaded now but the number of flights and destinations is *quite* limited.

Found a flight from IAD to SLC on DL in September (know it's ot what you are looking for but just to let you know). CO is giving them a 4 designator.

The latest CO timetable shows DL codeshare destinations as ATL, GSO, LAX, SLC, SFO, IAD. There is no scheduled CO service between SLC and SEA. I'm sure the DL codeshares covering this will be on the schedule the day after I buy other tickets.
