Got an email (slightly old) from Coby at ZFW ARTCC about how Delta (and Delta Virtual) is shutting down operations at DFW. Is this true (for DVA) or is he talking about another (and lesser ) Delta Virtual? I ask cause DFW is my hub, even though DVA doesn't really emphacize hub behavior. It's what I was raised on, and I like the facility. biggrin

Sorry...left out part of my message.

Yes, the real Delta is cutting back at DFW drastically, which limits your options if you fly based on today's, real world schedule.

Thanks for the link, Trevor. I guess I won't mind if it takes a while for the DVA database to update the routes. *wink*

According to Danny Edwards, DAL lost $2.2bn in the last quarter, and only 1.8bn are left in cash reserves. Too damn close to filing Chapter 11.. Let's hope Grinstein's "plan" saves us.

Cheers!
