Can you list the 5 cities?

Delta is eliminating non-stop flights between Orlando and cities that are not its hubs, many of them regional jet flights.
It will stop flying non-stop from New Orleans to Orlando and Nashville to Orlando, among others.

The schedule shows Delta in October will stop flying about 70 non-stop routes that were flown with RJs a year earlier. Many connected midsize cities to Orlando or other leisure destinations. Others were convenient, business routes, such as Reagan Washington National Airport to Columbus, the capital of Ohio.
The result will be fewer and less-convenient connections. Delta's non-stop RJ flight between Boston and Norfolk, Va., for example, takes less than two hours. Once it's gone, flying between those two cities will mean connecting through New York Kennedy Airport, a trip that will take anywhere from four hours to more than six hours, depending on the layover time in New York.
