Delta cuts more flights at Cincinnati hub

Posted: Updated:

CINCINNATI (AP) - Delta Air Lines is cutting another 10 percent of its flights at Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport.

Once the cuts are made in January, the hub will have its fewest number of Delta flights in at least 15 years. The Atlanta-based company said Friday it's cutting 25 flights from its daily schedule and eliminating service entirely to Charleston, S.C., Savannah, Ga., Tulsa, Okla., and Huntsville, Ala.

The airline already cut 13 percent of its flights in Cincinnati in early September. Local officials are again worried that Delta is slowly shrinking the hub to nothing.

Cincinnati is now competing with hubs in Detroit and Minneapolis due to Delta's ongoing merger with Northwest Airlines.
