D31, Thanks for some info. I really think that Leo will not be able to compete against the low cost carriers with mainline rates and mainline operational costs. I have read several analyst's reports that have stated that Delta would have to start a new carrier using lower pay scales and benifits accross the board or use DCI for some of the capacity. Personally, I don't think DCI can handle that and what it is doing now. I can see the mainline furloughed guys flying the equipement as Delta is vigerously looking at 90 and 110 seat aircraft. These of course would have to be flown by mainline guys but I would think on different seniority lists. Because their binefits would be completely different, it would be impossible to put them on the same list. They would eventually move on to the mainline and then continue where they (furloughed guys)left off and new guys would replace them. Dont really know what is going to happen, but I hope it is for the best.
As far as the banks, Delta went from 10 banks to 12 banks per day. Since I am a DCI guy, I cant answer about the mainline side of the house, but I can say that the waiting for dep lines went down. The main problem for DCI right now is parking. To many apples to fit into the box (and they are getting more!). I dont see and end to that problem until the new runway and terminal are completed. Airtans is to move to the new terminal and ASA will get all of C. At least that is the present master plan. It could change before 2005 when completion is scheduled.
