I recall seeing a link on the web site for preferred routes, yet I can't seem to find it. Has it been removed or was I seeing something that didn't actually exist?

The Preferred Routes we had dated from 2002, or earlier. Our strategic goal is to use the ACARS dispatch routes as our "preferred route" source going forward. We have FlightAware data feed so the link that Steve posted has the same data that is available to our dispatch route plotters via the web application and the Dispatch client.

Cheers!

Thanks guys .. I've been using FlightAware for route planning already, though I knew Delta has a place at one point. Thanks for clearing that up Luke.
