If you live in Atlanta, you have very little choice other than to fly delta. They own half the gates at Hartsfield. (I refuse to add "Jackson" to the end of the name).

Airtran has a good presence here as well, but they are not yet what I would call a "major" and do not go everywhere even domestically yet. Though Airtran is definitely doing many things right and growing very rapidly.

Delta is trying harder to provide better service. They're upgrading their planes as well, seatback entertainment systems ala Frontier, et al, are showing up in more planes. Whipping everyone on the planes' ass at trivia is a great time killer.
