More adds to SEA. This is getting interesting.
WorldSpan is showing Delta metal being added SEA-LAS and SEA-ANC. No idea if it's seasonal or year-round but this whole Seattle build up alongside unconfirmed reports that ATL is pissed at Alaska for the AA announcement -- makes this a story to keep watching.

Wow! This is interestingly enough. I didn't see it. Give it some more tougher competition against other carriers.
Why they put 738 aircraft from SEA-LAS, but there is no 757-200 aircraft?
What's next? How about PHX, RNO, ABQ, SFO, OAK?

The DL-AS codeshare has been getting worse and worse. First AS offers SEA-MSP, then SEA-ATL, and SEA-SLC. Can't blame DL for getting back at them with SEA-ANC and SEA-LAS. Those aren't typical FF routes so it'll be nice for UG's on DL metal, but I'm not sure it makes business sense for DL.
