So I have a question, with the new flight schedule are we no longer allowed to use flights from the Delta Real World Schedule? What I do is I downloaded the software from Delta's website that shows all of their flights and then choose a flight and then use it on ACARS. Is this no longer allowed?

David,
You can still use the Delta real world timetable since it displays the same flights as our new schedule.

That's correct, I had the same question to Terry about using the Delta real flight schedule, no problem, we validated the flights and all is great.

We were missing some of the Skywest flights here which is the western delta connection partner, Terry found them and got them into the system. If you find something that isn't there, just let Terry or Luke know. I imagine Delta updates their file before the outside reservation companys get them.

No it was actual Delta flights in the Md-88 series. I found them on Flight Aware then looked them up in my delta software. Then I tried to look them up on Deltava and they were not there. I did find another delta md-88 flight on our website just a different flight number.
