Maps of the Delta and United cuts loaded so far, as interpreted from the FlightAware cancels reports.

Not all frequencies on these routes, and decent chance things continue to shift. But this is what I'm seeing right now.

My next 33 hours:

IAD > ORD > Wrigley Field > The Publican > The United Center > Sleep a Few Hours > ORD > IAD

I'm treating the last few weeks of my 40s like Sherman's March to the Sea LFG!

No longer, @scalzi.com - I put this morning’s 3-hr ORD layover to good use, and hiked over from B to E to pick this up. It’s now about to head to IAD with me, and from there to NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center. Thanks!!!

Just off the top: EWR/JFK/PHL (and this is probably a smaller hurdle), IAD and DCA (gonna be a major headache), ORD and ORD, LAX and LAX. Never mind dominating US-LHR and both TPAC and TLAM.

That DFW/IAH/DEN -- the three biggest mid-continent hubs beyond Chicago -- doesn't even register is...

I wonder if there was some big discrepancy in number of direct Athens flights from Atlanta (presumably where most in the Southeast would fly from) vs from LAX, IAD or ORD
May 9, 2025 at 7:53 PM
United also said it will upgauge LGA<>ORD flights. Many days operate all 15 (!) flights with 737-800, but other days half the flights are E175s.

Can we get some of that mainline action on LGA-IAD, too? Please?
