This is by far the worst trip selection and bid award I've ever had at Delta.
QOL is getting worse.

For anyone who put or has put part of the profit sharing into their 401K, how long does it take Fidelity to show that amount added to your 401K? Thanks,

Or Frontier doing LAX-MSP, which NW responded to by smothering that route with DC10s and sucking up all F9s pax with ridiculously low fares (I recall $49, this was in 2002-03 or so). They did the same to airtran when they tried some direct flying out of MSP. But Reno, airtran & Frontier went up against Northwest. NWA was always the most aggressive in defending their hubs, to the point of being accused of anti-competitive behavior, and was especially protective of MSP. They tolerated Sun Country as a way of keeping all the other LCCs out. Delta's always been a lot more laissez-faire about competition even in their core hubs, and MSP certainly isn't one of those anymore.

I think Delta under RA is willing to cede, to a certain extent, a few low-margin leisure travelers. However, should a competitor attempt to poach HVCs or crash the network, I'm confident that an appropriate level of *****-slapping will be delivered.
Incidentally, I understand that MSP is a highly profitable hub. I'm sure it will be defended accordingly.
