delta pulling back slc-jfk?
just went to book some flights to nyc and realized there are only 4 daily flights (one is a redeye) in september. Seems there were considerably more than this for the past several years. Is this an intentional pullback on this route or is this seasonal?

From schedule archives, just looks like normal seasonal variability. 4x daily during the Fall looks to be very much typical. If you check further out, you will see flights go back up to 5x - 7x daily starting in winter ski season and continuing through summer.

Same thing I was going to say, summer travel to all the national parks ends after labor day, and it's not ski season yet. Plus throw in all the extra connectivity in LAX and SEA to some smaller cities in the West that can handle connection traffic vs flowing everyone though SLC as would have been necessary 4-5 years ago.
