Delta adds more to DCA/LGA/JFK

[Alex T]

Fall schedule highlights include:

* Increased service at Washington-Reagan National Airport, with new or increased service to nine cities beginning Oct. 31.


* Enhanced domestic and international service at LaGuardia and JFK airports in New York, with new or expanded service to 12 cities beginning Sept. 7.

I am also very pleased to see STL-DCA, and was kind of surprised, but at the same token, with the expansion Delta has been doing at STL among other cities, it certainly is very welcome.

Delta with the new schedule will now be at 39 daily flights to 9 different cities/airports. American by comparision at STL will be at 33 daily flights to 7 destinations.

This now makes Delta larger than American Airlines in STL and 2nd place behind Southwest Airlines. Man, who ever saw this coming 10 years ago!? hahaha

Where did these slots come from? Did they axe some of the MSP/DTW/MEM flights that NW mainline had? Did they reallocate from the JAN/HSV/GRR/DSM-type cities that were in the network?
