Airlines aren't planning for a travel recession next year...
Most interesting to me are the LAX additions. Delta is fighting for the market there

If Delta and VS are, then they need to lower their airfares LAX-LHR. I booked a trip this morning on that route in Business Class and DL/VS was $13K while AA/UA were ~$8.5K.... Needless to say, my travel compliance system did not allow the preferred carrier on DL/VS but instead forced me onto AA. Annoyed but understanding.

Given DL's typical trans-Atlantic pricing, I doubt I'll ever take that flight on DL, but just the fact that they have it should be good for consumers.

I'm wondering if they're going to ax SEA-LHR if they're adding LAX-LHR.

They're running SEA/LHR right now as a VS 789 and a DL 76W / A333. The VS flight is daily right now and the DL flight is 5x (I believe). The DL flight addition to LHR from SEA in add'n to the VS metal is new in 2022, I hope they keep it as it's nice to have options for instruments. Not sure what you mean by "axe" though- the DL flight or all of SEA/LHR (which I don't see happening).
