Will DL need extra sections from IND/MSY-FLL/PBI/MIA during Super Bowl?
Hi All,
Do you really think where lots of those passengers will have to flying to MIA/FLL/PBI? DL should have to get more extra sections from MSY/IND-FLL flight? I would certainly if they will have to bring more Saints/Colts fans are going to the Super Bowl on February 7. So otherwise, it should have to bring more larger aircraft out of MSY-FLL or IND-FLL/MIA. So let's speculations begin.
Regards

I live relatively close to New Orleans and I have family in Palm Beach. I just usually drive down since it takes about 8.5 hours plus you don't have spend $$$ on plane tickets. I don't seem them loading up many extra flights. They'll probably just jack up the prices on whatever they have left and then add accordingly.

I was curious about this so I checked into this a few weeks ago. From ATL anyway, they're going to run 12 767-300's to MIA on Monday after. From FLL they're going to run 12 767-300's and 2 767-400's. For PBI it looks like a normal schedule to ATL.

If the weather permitted will be good for this time. If they doesn't have a chance to get rains again. Do you remember from last time where the games came into FLL/MIA during Super Bowl in year of Feb. 2007. The weather is so terrible and it was so much raining all evening long. That's why the entire games are getting so wet & the fans, too.

Now, it's official from DL is getting more extra sections
Hi All,
DL will have adding 2 more nonstop from MSY-MIA on Feb. 5, 2010 and returns back to MSY on Feb. 8, 2010. So also, DL will have more extra sections from IND-ATL & ATL-MIA, too. It will bring more equipped to be change from 757 to 767-300 aircraft due to Super Bowl weekend. So unfortunately, there is no chance to get more extra sections into FLL for this time. I believe DL will have to increasing the bags requirement cutoff time from 30 to 45 minutes before departed flight out of MIA. So here the links came in this morning. Here it is:
