Would be nice if Delta would replace it’s Delta connection flights to LaGuardia & JFK (maybe even Detriot) with straight Delta jets (A320) instead of the regional jets.
Airlines decide whether they make more money by flying to a destination once or twice a day on a large plane or flying to the same destination four times a day on a smaller plane. Travelers, I think, prefer having more flights at convenient times to choose from.
Delta uses their regional partners for these flights because it’s the most efficient way for them to get IND’s outbound passengers to these cities for onward connections.
Use A320s instead & people will be waiting 8 hours on their connections in Detroit. Or, more likely, fly on another airline that gets them to their destination faster.
Worth mentioning they already fly direct to Newark.
See, you get a great pick with Spirit.
Either you fly into Newark, which provides easy access into & out of Manhattan but is probably the worst major airport in North America.
OR
You fly into LaGuardia, which has a nice renovated terminal but sees many delays & has the most limited transit connections to the rest of the city.
Pick your poison & pretend that JFK does not exist.
