No worries. Delta would need a large fleet of modern DC-9's that seat around 110 passengers with new Business Class interiors with in seat IFE and WiFi in order to have any chance at all. Since no such Airplane exists, Delta will surely fail at this futile attempt to compete with our Positively Outrageous Service. "Grab Your Bag, It's On!":uzi:

Is it me or does it seem like Delta is pi&&ing in a lot of bowls of Post Toasties lately?

I would think that an opportunity to travel from DAL-LGA, ATL, LAX etc. in a reserved big seat would be very popular with Dallas businesses. Hopefully the DOJ won't waste the AA gates on an airline that can't provide that.

It's too bad they don't start service right now...maybe SWA could get a congressman to pass another amendment that says you can't have nonstop service outside the boardering states unless you suffered under th original wright law.

No one had a desire to serve Love under the Wright Amendment because of the ridiculous restrictions written into that law. Southwest of course found ways to operate successfully at DAL due to its point to point route structure. Now that Wright is finally being repealed there will definitely be more players other than just Delta vying for a piece of that market. Wright did not restrict other players at Love, the SWA monopoly there grew from the fact that no one else wanted it.

Actually, American and Continental were in there not all that long ago running flights to Houston, Austin, etc.

They got a good butt whippin' and pulled out.

It's easy to say you'll compete, but compete and SUCCEED is another thing altogether. We'll see how Delta does.
