Delta flying direct to Harligen

In general, price competition on any airline route is a good thing. But what if Delta drives Sun Country away from Harlingen? Are there really enough people to fill two direct flights a day (all year)?

Interesting & I had missed that....wonder if that is why Sun Country keeps adjusting their flight times for April as I have already had 3 changes.

Will be nice to use frequent flier miles for HRL but does anybody have experience using golf deceiver bags with Delta? Just looked at their baggage policy & if they follow that it is expensive to take boards, where Sun Country has typically been pretty easy going.

Delta policy for Kiteboards:
•150 USD/CAD or 105 EUR* for travel to all regions (excluding Brazil)
•Boards over 115 linear inches will not be accepted
•Kiteboards will not be accepted as part of the passenger's baggage allowance
•All kiteboard equipment is accepted up to 70 pounds at a flat rate
•Kiteboards are allowed up to two (2) boards perbag
•Kiteboards are not accepted on flights operated by Express Jet

Flight options are good but if they do drive SC out then cheap flights will be gone.
