Seems to be most/all flights end in December, dunno what they're playing at! Probably a more solid itinerary than previous carriers on this route.

Gutted about that one, used it three times this year. It's really incomprehensible how a route that was (when I used it - May, July and Sept) 85-90% full is dumped. Perhaps it's more to do with the...

Delta Man-JFK

It's not a direct flight as far as I can see, it goes via Amsterdam on a code-share in June. Only know because I fancied the trip but not with a stop.
