Scary growth
Interesting article on DL. Living in Seattle and see how much they have grown here is amazing.

capacity growth is one thing ... sustained revenue growth is another

Don't Agree with Hunter K
Someone should show this article to Spin88 over at the United forum so he can rebut it. I think it is perfectly fine for Delta to expand in markets with weaker or smaller competition. It's taking a reduction in CASM in the short run for the sake of future growth and more long term profits.
