For me it's:

RDU - ORD / MDW (unlikely as per BOS - ORD)
RDU - CLT (no chance)
RDU - AMS (unlikely)
RDU - CHS / HHH / SAV (unlikely)
RDU - Asia (no chance x1000)

Geez.

What is the deal with DTW and all points west?

No ELP, TUS, ABQ, SJC, YVR, HNL.

I don't fly through there, so I had no idea there was this unexpected gap in service there. I thought DTW was supposed to be a hub?

Where do you have to fly to in order to get to those places? MSP? SLC? ATL?

Anyhow, that's the one pattern I noticed in all this discussion that seems consistent.

You took the words out of my mouth.

I am in BZN (busiest airport in Montana), and in the NW days, we had non-stop to MSP, DTW, and DL had non-stops to SLC, ATL. Since DL took over, we have lost DTW service. I would LOVE to have that back - 1 connection then heading to Asia or Europe. As it is now, I have to connect in SLC or MSP to get to DTW.

Rumor has it we may get a seasonal DTW-BZN flight 1-2x weekly, but nothing official yet. I would think we would get it in the summer at least, especially with the amount of Asian traffic we see heading to Yellowstone during the summer.

United is making a PNS-ORD route work (though granted it's on a RJ 145) so there is some demand for a Midwest-FL panhandle nonstop option.

I wish DL would reinstate JFK-SVO back to year-round, or at least summer seasonal as it used to be.

Those of us over here at ECP feel exactly the same. It was great knowing I had backup routing options on Delta when severe weather struck ATL (or I don't want to double connect, say to like ANC).

Sigh.

Not a ton, being ATL-based. I'd like JFK-NRT or ICN or HND--I miss JFK-NRT. I used to selfishly want them to bring back ATL-MCN when I went to school in middle GA to avoid the driving. And I'd like higher frequency ATL-JFK.

There's a seasonal Saturday-only (plus Sunday July 1) DTW-YVR roundtrip flight through the end of August.
