  • Friday 7:51 AM Are regional carriers on the way out? The Cranky Flier blog dissects Delta Air Lines' (DAL) deal to buy 88 717s from Southwest Airlines to draw the conclusion that the carrier will "slash and burn" regional 50-seater flights that it runs under the Chautauqua, Comair, ExpressJet, Pinnacle, and Skywest banners. Not only are the routes to small cities money-losers, but a new union contract with pilots limits the number of small aircraft they will fly.

  • Wednesday 9:46 AM Delta Air Lines (DAL -1.1%) will offer more premium seats on flights longer than 750 miles starting on June 7. While the carrier grabs a little extra seat revenue at $19-$99 a pop, customers signing on nab an extra three to four inches of legroom and can board flights earlier.

  • Tuesday 1:16 PM Southwest Airlines (LUV -1.1%) strikes an agreement with Delta Air Lines (DAL +0.1%) to lease the company 88 Boeing 717s after deciding it didn't need the jets acquired in its purchase of Airtran. The deal could be a win-win, with Delta able to update its aging fleet and Southwest cutting back costs by only flying 737s.
