      <![CDATA[Responding to Senor:<br>
<br>
Actually the Memphis to Amsterdam flight left Memphis nearly full most of the time in December and about 80% full most of the time in October and November. Last Summer, the flight left Memphis nearly full every day.

      <![CDATA[I guess that it is easy to be a Memphis basher on this issue, but the Memphis to Amsterdam flights were obviously money losers for Delta and this is why they are being more or less scrapped, or seasonal. What is in Amsterdam anyway?

      <![CDATA[An airline hub is generally a good and positive thing for a city...But when a hub becomes a monopoly and charges excessively high air fares that strangles business and convention growth, that hub becomes a liability that the city can no longer afford...it only benefits the airline at the expense of the hub city.<br>
It is time to dismantle the Delta hub...let's go through the short term pain...and eventually, like so many other cities that have lost hub status, the short term pain will turn into growth and prosperity.

      <![CDATA[It’s a pleasure to read an article about the airport that is not a rehash of a press release or Airport Authority spin. <br>
Case in point – it’s a”2 billion dollar impact” when we have the flight to Amsterdam.

      <![CDATA[Well, if Memphians want someone to blame for Delta pulling the Amsterdam service, blame Congressman Steve Cohen.<br>
<br>
Cohen should return all the PAC money he received from Delta Airlines over the years. Obviously Cohen is Delta Airlines man in Washington.<br>
<br>
Cohen is not fighting for Memphis jobs.
