NW Adding a 10th Daily (and well-timed) DTW-LGA Flight in April
I was booking some trips out into April and I noticed an *exciting* change to DTW-LGA, an additional daily frequency.
The new flight(s) is:
NW 544 0730 0910 319
NW 529 1850 2056 319
This is great since it gives another option in the morning other than the rediculously early 6am departure (I don't like waking up before 4am) and enables you to still get into NYC in the morning.
The new return is timed well too since it gives another option in the evening.
Note that the 6am DTW-LGA & 8pm LGA-DTW flights will no longer be a 757.
NW metal will also take over the LGA-FLL route in April with 319's

Slightly off topic, but NYC-related and not worth its own thread.
MEM-JFK is being introduced 1x daily on Compass starting 4/6.
MEM-JFK is 9:15a-12:55p. JFK-MEM is 3:55p-6:03p
Selfishly happy about these, since the AM MEM-LGA flight departs MEM too early and PM arrives MEM too late to make STL connections, but these JFK flights will work. Off course, I'll be routing myself through MSP for a few months this summer to hitch a ride on the 330 MSP-JFK-MSP.

The Monday 6a departure DTW>LGA was consistently full on a 757-200, so this is a nice addition. Like others, I hated getting up at 345a to make the departure.
