When SFO and BOS start? Seems odd, ATL has been very popular on the face of it!
But I imagine ATL carries a lot of transfer pax, some of which could be to SFO or other west coast destinations that will be accessible via SFO or LAS.
Until we know the final schedules for s2017, it's difficult to assess, but if ATL is reduced to 5 x weekly, will it enable VS to operate their program with 4 based a/c rather than 5?
Be careful what you wish for. Each uplift in MEB3 capacity kicks future non-stops to places like KL and Bangkok etc further out in to the distance.
This was a fair point made by A.N.T. Likewise, ATL is a hub for DL/VS, and the more non-stop services there are to other US cities, the demand to fly via the hub is reduced to a degree.
