Delta's going through some things, as we all know. However, the pilot issue is about to be resolved, and they will get back to business. They are aggressively going after the Caribbean, Central & South American tourist markets this year, generally in cahoots with the all-inclusives, as they did in Punta Cana. The ATL-POP route has already been delayed 2x times in 2006, but it is definitely in the works.
There is a significant Dominican population in ATL. Nowhere to the numbers of NYC or Miami, but significant. Delta's targets are mostly on tourists' dollars, not Dominicans in ATL. Again, explains the ATL-PUJ route.
