So the American Tax payer bails out an airline, a year or two down the track they 'expand' onto a route with atrocious yields, while bleeding money in an economic crisis.
Munt, where do you get your info. The American Taxpayer gave nothing to Delta. What do you know that no one else does?
Also, the Pacific may be "atrocious" now, but very recently it was a "cash cow" and it will be again.
Delta is simply trying to run UAL off the route and out of business.
