Has anyone heard anything else about a possible Delta expansion? I flew to LAS on SW and one of their ticket agents said she heard the same rumor that DL may expand service here.

Look for SLC to switch from mainline to SkyWest CRJ900s this winter.

I'm surprised DL mainline pilots aren't fighting that. From what I remember, there was a clause that stated certain routes are to be flown by mainline aircraft if they exceed a certain number of miles.

CRJ900? That would be pathetic actually. I remember being on IND-SLC back in May and it was a sold out A320. Maybe a crappy attempt by DL to force people through ATL?

I, too, remember an MD-90 being sold out a few years ago when I passed through SLC. For as many passengers out of IND that use SLC as their west coast or Hawaii gateway, putting a CRJ on this route is indeed pretty pathetic.

What about a boeing 737 on the SLC-IND route.
