Dal Closes Bos Res Center!

[Dizel8]

From the Boston Globe
---DELTA TO CLOSE BOSTON RES CENTER---
Citing the recent jetBlue announcement of massive expansion in Boston, Delta announced plans to close its Boston reservations call center Sept.
1, a move that will eliminate about 353 positions. The airline, which
next month will move into the newly renovated Terminal A at Boston Logan,
notified workers of the closing this week. Delta is also closing a
similar reservations center in Los Angeles at the same time, eliminating a
total of 403 telephone sales jobs at that center. All workers will be
offered other positions with the airline. Delta will keep open nine other
call centers around the country

9 others? Besides ATL, and SLC (I'm assuming), where are the rest?

After Sept 1 when Boston and Los Angeles close we will have res offices in:
Miami, Tampa, Huntsville, Montgomery, Augusta, Atlanta, Cincinnatti, Dallas/Ft Worth and Salt Lake City...

Nothing from Delta has ever been said that the closing of the BOS res office was due to a Jet Blue expansion there....Even the story on the boston globe website, which you reference - http://www.boston.com/business/articles/20...r_cut_353_jobs/ - never mentions that the closing is due to JetBlue expansion...or am I reading the wrong article?

Heck, I do not know, just pasted it from another board. Perhaps someone got creative.
