Distinguishing between Delta hubs and focus cities
Hello all. So, there are a lot of conflicting sources for DL's hubs/focus cities and the blur between the the two has gotten kind of murky. Currently, we are listing the following:

Hubs:
 * Amsterdam
 * Atlanta
 * Boston
 * Cincinnati
 * Detroit
 * London–Heathrow
 * Los Angeles
 * Minneapolis/St. Paul
 * New York–JFK
 * New York–LaGuardia
 * Paris–Charles de Gaulle
 * Salt Lake City
 * Seattle/Tacoma
 * Tokyo–Narita

Focus cities:
 * Raleigh/Durham

According to the most recent DL publications, here is the breakdown (http://s1.q4cdn.com/231238688/files/doc_presentations/2017/Delta-Air-Lines-Investor-Day_2017.pdf):

Hubs:
 * Atlanta
 * Detroit
 * Los Angeles
 * Minneapolis/St. Paul
 * New York–JFK
 * New York–LaGuardia
 * Salt Lake City
 * Seattle/Tacoma
 * Tokyo-Narita — Preceding unsigned comment added by 73.82.207.217 (talk) 21:10, 22 December 2018 (UTC)

Focus cities:
 * Boston
 * Cincinnati
 * Raleigh/Durham

According to DL's "press paragraph", the breakdown is (http://news.delta.com/corporate-stats-and-facts):

Hubs:
 * Amsterdam
 * Atlanta
 * Boston
 * Detroit
 * Los Angeles
 * Mexico City
 * Minneapolis/St. Paul
 * New York-JFK and LaGuardia
 * London–Heathrow
 * Paris–Charles de Gaulle
 * Salt Lake City
 * São Paulo
 * Seattle/Tacoma
 * Seoul
 * Tokyo–Narita

I also want to caution that we may be relying to heavily on WP:PRIMARY sources, perhaps using secondary sources will help clarify the issue. I have distinguished secondary sources from the primary ones below.

Discussion
In my opinion, per WP:PRIMARY, while the large hubs can be adequately sourced from DL's material, I think we need to use WP:SECONDARY to declare the hubs/focus cities DL leaves ambiguous. These include CVG/BOS/RDU/MCO/etc. Based on the secondary sources, I think we should list it as: ATL/BOS/CVG/DTW/MSP/JFK/LGA/SLC/LAX, Focus Cities: RDU/MCO. Stinger 20 ( talk ) 02:27, 26 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Add on, I would not be opposed to listing CVG/BOS/RDU/MCO as focus cities, but I do have issues with significant secondary sources calling both airports hubs (CVG/BOS), while the primary sources leave it ambiguous, then selecting certain primary sources as ref's and ignoring the others. Stinger 20  ( talk ) 23:51, 4 January 2018 (UTC)

I don't think any overseas airports (LHR,CDG,AMS,NRT) should be listed as hubs. They are transfer or alliance hubs and don't meet the definition of a hub that we tend to use here in my opinion. As for everything else, I agree that we should be relying on secondary sources where the primary Delta sources leave it ambiguous. Garretka (talk) 00:00, 5 January 2018 (UTC)
 * That is a good point, I overlooked that. The secondary sources are not listing AMS/CDG/LHR as hubs, I will remove that from my previous post. Looking at some of DL's sourcing, they are starting to call GRU/MEX/ICN hubs in the same way as LHR/AMS/CDG, these are all not hubs (secondary sources agree). The source on NRT essentially says the hub is effectively dead, I would see that as a justification for NRT not being listed as a hub, plus the primary sourcing on DL largely supports that. Stinger 20  ( talk ) 00:05, 5 January 2018 (UTC)

This is all very confusing to say the least. Delta does not make it clear one way or another. Size wize, CVG, BOS and RDU are more along the lines of focus cities, but Delta's website has contradicting information. If it were up to me, I'd list them as focus cities for now, but I'll leave it alone until something more formal comes out. I do agree we should deslist the foreign hubs (LHR, CDG, AMS and NRT), as those really don't count. NBA2030 (talk) 01:02, 5 January 2018 (UTC)


 * Wikipedia is not and never will be a repository for such minute pedantic detail - as is being discussed above. This is also a really good example of why Wikipedia relies on WP:SECONDARY references and does does not rely on WP:PRIMARY sources. In this case it matters nothing what Delta says - Delta will say what ever they want, what matters here is what is written in reliable secondary sources. This is exactly why the sourcing rules are written the way they are.  I often feel many of the contributers to aviation related articles are trying to outdo each other to find the most esoteric fact to add to an already long list of entires (whatever the list is for), such detail is not what is actually needed in an Encyclopaedia which is a WP:TERTIARY source and should be a distillation of the sources not a repetition of these.  Less is more!


 * My advice on focus cities is that mostly that they don't really truely exist (when did you ever hear anyone say Oh I'm going to XXXXX city did you know that is a Focus city for Malasian Airlines?) as the lack of reliable secondary references suggests.  This being so such detail just simply should not be mentioned in Wikipedia it is NOt what Wikipedia is for.  Everyone will be happier and the world will not end.  Hubs are slightly different as these do physically exist - it is usually obvious which airport a particular airline is connecting passengers through (the definition of a hub), I would limit hubs to only to those that "many" passengers connect to "many" flight options on the same airline.  An alliace hub (the "Amsterdam problem" - AMS is NOT a delta hub by this definition).  Neither does base = hub.  I personally would just list the obvious ones - it matters little to Wikipedia as a whole that the list does not include a particular potential addition past the obvious.  Off the top of my head - United would be ORD, IAH, SFO, EWR nothing else,  Delta ATL and maybe others, British Airways LHR and possibly LGW but that would be debatable example, Emirates - DXB etc etc I would stop when it gets hard or questionable.  If there is doubt leave it out. Andrewgprout (talk) 22:31, 5 January 2018 (UTC)

I think we ought to go ahead and remove the foreign hubs, since they don't really classify as hubs in the traditional sense. The rest we can leave for now. NBA2030 (talk) 00:04, 13 January 2018 (UTC)
 * I back this, maybe it will help get some other editors to join the discussion as well. Stinger 20  ( talk ) 22:58, 13 January 2018 (UTC)
 * alright, I went ahead and removed the foreign hubs. We still need more feedback from others about whether or not BOS and CVG should be hubs or focus cities. NBA2030 (talk) 00:59, 17 January 2018 (UTC)

Focus cities
Should we really be listing Austin, Nashville and San Jose as focus cities? They are not on the same level as Cincinnati and Raleigh-Durham and I believe Delta was referring to them as a "focus" in growth, not as a focus city in the classic definition. Blissfield101 (talk) 01:13, 6 June 2019 (UTC)

BNA as a Focus City
I was checking out the Delta site for a ATL-DET flight. In addition to a direct flight, connections through three cities were offered: BNA, CVG, and RDU. I believe connecting flights would fit the definition of a focus city. Thoughts? CommunityFlow (talk) 14:22, 26 November 2019 (UTC)

Focus city at PDX
I believe one of delta’s focus cities is at Portland, they have a flight from salt lake come on a 737-800 then a 767 continues on to Tokyo's Narita airport. I think this warrants at least focus city. It is also launched many flights to is hubs such as LAX or SLC and I think they are trying to compete with Alaska Airlines there as well. This would probably make PDX a focus city for delta. Lufthansa122 (talk) 16:54, 22 February 2020 (UTC)
 * No, it's not. Just because it has a few non-hub routes doesn't mean it is classified as focus city. Delta has never referred to it as such. Frankly, we shouldn't be listing any focus cities because the definition is too gray. We should only list hubs/operating bases. Blissfield101 (talk) 22:03, 3 March 2020 (UTC)

Add the 2019 financial figures to the "Financial information for Delta, by year" table for the fiscal year ending 2019.

Figures to add: Revenue = $47,007 (reference page 27) Net income = $4,767 (reference page 27) Total assets = $64,532 (reference page 27) Price per share = ? (see below) Employees = 91,000 (reference page 11)

Question on price per share: what is the criteria for this? Price at market close on Dec 31, 2019? Average price for the year 2019? Something else?

Fleet size and sources
Sorry, colleagues, the wrangling over fleet size figures has got to stop. You (we) can't complain about Planespotters being an inadequate source here, then move the reference citation out of the infobox per WP:INFOBOXREF here, and then completely remove the cite ref here, all the while (before, during and after) entering apparently arbitrary (because unsourced) values in one or the other (almost never both) of the locations in the article.

I have no idea where the 763, 777, 775, 779, 808 numbers come from. Oh, wait! Yes, I do, the last changes, with the edit summary "Planespotter.com is not WP:RS", changed the fleet size to 808, as at planespotters, but completely removed the ref. I am going to reinstate the ref "Planespotters-Delta", including the "Better source needed" template, and hope that somebody can either provide a better source, stop changing the fleet size to unsourced values, or both.

Otherwise, we will have to go with 722 and the phrase "As of August 2015", because that's what the remaining ref citation gives us. &mdash; JohnFromPinckney (talk) 19:55, 27 January 2021 (UTC)

Airbus and Boeing Order's required?
Hi Delta Air Lines,

Good everyone, I saw a check on the internet for Delta Air Lines fleet list for the information.

I think it's Latam group will get some of the Airbus A350-1000 4 series transfer to Delta Air Lines later this year? A350-1000 long haul is 10,004 miles very awesome and also just wants to travel to Europe, Asia, Oceania, Middle East, and Africa and one more non-stop direction from Atlanta to Johannesburg, South Africa that is good absolutely.

Boeing 777-300ER or 777X choice: Well, it was a too very long time last delay the last buy product for Boeing 777-300ER (10) series order will be instead both Boeing 777-200ER and LR, too, or Boeing 777-8X or 9X the same everything for this attraction can in the future and I think so?

Boeing 787’s required? Delta because it canceled its order from Boeing 787-8 last in December 2016 why? Maybe again when Boeing 787-8, 9, and 10 families travel to Asia, Europe, Oceania, Africa, and the Middle East for Delta Air Lines it will be able instead of Airbus A330-200, and Boeing 767-300ER during hubs at Atlanta Airport and they are agreeing able?

I am a deaf in Seattle only. I would like it Delta Air Lines guess hub in Seattle, too.
