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

CMH isn't getting TATL on DL or any other real airline anytime soon.

I don't think that DL will care at all about AC. The partnership with WS will be strengthening as 2019 goes by and one would think that DL would want to know what WS wants to do with that route. My guess is that within a a year or two, WS will be flying it with two or three class aircraft.

It has to be on the way, especially with the WS JV. However, I'd think that DL would try it out on a smaller aircraft first (like the A319) and then upgauge it if it meets or exceeds their expectations. DL seems to have applied that philosophy fairly consistently as it has grown its hub in SEA. SEA-LAX started out as 3x CRJs daily.

+1
+1 and Cape Air is a terrifying flying experience
ALB-ATL increased frequency to 4x or 5x daily, even if additions are Delta Connection
ALB to any connection out west (SLC, SEA, or even LAX)
And selfishly, DFW-IAH so that I can connect on AF, KL, and KE with a 30min flight

Sunday, June 9, Albany adds a 4th flight to Atlanta. Departures are now approximately 6 AM, noon, 3 PM, and 6 PM. The 3 PM is new and will be on a CR9
