What (nonstop) route do you wish Delta would really have?

It's filed as year-round, although there are a few scattered periods where it doesn't run on Saturdays.

PNS or VPS to MSP or DTW. I'm nor fussy; I just want to see a non-ATL connection option again and know Memphis isn't coming back.

be careful what you wish for ... you might get 600 miles to CVG on a CRJ-200

Not terribly likely since it would compete against a seasonal VPS-CVG Allegiant route for much of the year and I can't see Delta thinking it was worth going against a ULCC on that route.

I suppose that this helps prove that there really isn't that much interest or demand in the route
None of the routes (or improvements in frequency/equipment) I wish for are realistic.

PHX-BOS
PHX-LAS
PHX-ICN
PHX-CDG/LHR/AMS 1 of the three.
Anywhere-BKK
SEA-HKG
Don't really think any of them besides PHX-BOS are likely.

Really hoping Delta brings back the ONT-ATL non-stop. Now that the city has control of the Ontario airport other airlines are coming back, just need delta to.

Both are unlikely, though. Any aircraft with the range can get higher yields on other routes, especially several shorter hops. Even MSP-ABQ has much less mainline metal than it used to.
