Six of us just finished initial on the 7ER on Sunday and return to ATL for WWO at the end of April. We were all told and including the CA's, OE and TOE are running 6-8 weeks to start, but anything could happen. Hope that helps.

suspends service to Cairo, Amman
April 5, 2011
Delta is indefinitely suspending two international routes amid weak customer demand and high fuel costs, as part of its previously announced 4% reduction in transatlantic capacity.
Service between New York-JFK and Amman, Jordan will be suspended effective June 1. Delta has canceled plans to resume service between New York-JFK and Cairo, which was suspended in February. Both flights were launched in June 2008.
Delta will continue to offer service between the U.S. and Amman and Cairo via Paris and Amsterdam on flights operated by joint venture partner Air France-KLM.
The service suspension is an attempt to combat rising fuel costs. Current oil prices will increase Delta’s fuel costs by $3 billion, or 35%, this year over last year.

Wha? Oil prices matter? I thought that was nothing more than a scare tactic. 
AMM going away is sad, I did the inaugural flight right off TOE.

Too bad - I tried to get AMM for two years, never able to hold it. In the end, this is basically capacity reduction - we still "serve" AMM and CAI through AMS or CDG, so theoretically, flights to those hubs would have a few more pax than they would of without the cancellations.

Some of the most profitable flying Delta does - I've been told that 2 of the top 5 profitable destinations are in Africa... and we only fly to a few places there. Shows how profitable it is - cuts the Europe stop out on a USA-Africa route.
