OP here: I am sure this is a PR move, but what is a full Y price on these shuttle flts? If it was $1300 prior to this accident - it is what it is, if not - that is a problem. I live on the West Coast and do not take these flts, I found the news release 3 mins after hitting Yahoo.
Is US/AA offering free flts?

I don't know how many seats DL will actually give away, given that the flights were already pretty full. (Yes, they said they're flying larger planes; but they also have more demand from people who need to travel, and if those people haven't bought Amtrak tickets yet they don't get the free flights.)
