Most desired route on DL, but not likely to ever happen.

Although this route would never happen, I would love to see it. Grated I would be the only one on it, but it still would be very convenient for me.
AGS-GVA.

What about you? If you could have one route, which would it be?

JFK TO SXM non stop. Any plane would do.

I just want a simple CVG - LON back! Come on Delta, there are loads of fortune 500 companies here in town! P&G alone should justify this!

Won't be long before we're left with nothing but CVG->ATL.

CVG is a pathetic ghost town. The only thing that keeps me from switching to UA is my dread of connecting through ORD.

ORD-MDW.

Preferably served by a 77L.

The inaugural flight of United's "Ted" regional connection service was a ORD-MDW flight, but it was never sold publicly.

The route I'd love the most is IND <--> HKG nonstop. Come on DL, supposedly IND is one of your focus cities!

I'd be happy with SDF-SLC on a mainline MD-90 / 737 / A319 type aircraft.

In other words, no RJ service!

Any DL Hub (although I would guess JFK/ATL would make the most sense) - LED.

Programs: Now just a lowly DL PM/1MM. This industry needs some competition. It's just not enjoyable anymore.

ATL-EGE during the summer (skip the melting/early snow transition periods, and have seasonal service for both the winter and the summer). Love the winter service; summer service would save me the drive from DEN to Beaver Creek during the summer.

PDX to MKE. I am sick of connecting in ATL, DTW, MSP. Actually if any airline would pick up PDX to MKE that would be great.

Back in the day when you could get low awards, to HNL, I would cash them in on the EWR-HNL nonstop on CO. I live on Long Island and always hoped DL would eventually operate JFK-HNL. Maybe one day.

A JFK-CUN nonstop sure would also be a nice addition.
