>> 2 NEWS, OKLAHOMA STARTS RIGHT NOW. >> ONE OF THE BIG APPLE JUST GOT A WHOLE LOT EASIER ON 2 NEWS. OKLAHOMA'S DOUGLAS BRAFF INSIDE TULSA INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT. AND THIS IS WHERE THE FIRST DELTA FLIGHT THAT'S NONSTOP TO LAGUARDIA IS BORN >> FURTHER STRENGTHENING OUR CONNECTION TO ONE OF THE MOST ICONIC CITIES IN THE WORLD IN GIVING PEOPLE A FEW MORE OPTIONS WITH SCHEDULING MAY BE KEEPING FARES. WILL THAT MORE COMPETITIVE? >> IT WAS ONLY LESS THAN 2 YEARS AGO WHEN AMERICAN AIRLINES LAUNCHED ITS NONSTOP CONNECTION TO LAGUARDIA MAKING DELTA THE SECOND DIRECT ROUTE BETWEEN NEW YORK IN NOW CAN KILLER WITH THE AIRPORT SAYS 116 PEOPLE FLY BETWEEN BOTH CITIES EACH DAY AND BOTH WAYS UP 60% SINCE AMERICAN ADDED ITS ROUTE. JUST ALWAYS BIGGEST TOURISM. AND THEN EVEN GROUPS LIKE TULSA, REMOTE OR, YOU PEOPLE THAT HAVE RELOCATED FROM THE AREA CAN REALLY HELP INCREASE THE DEMAND FOR A CERTAIN ROUTE. BUT WHAT'S THIS MEAN FOR YOUR WALLET? WELL, I LOOK TO SEE IF THERE WAS MUCH DIFFERENCE IN TICKET PRICES ACROSS MULTIPLE DAYS AND WEEKS. THE DELTA AND AMERICAN NONSTOP FLIGHTS. LAGUARDIA MOSTLY COST THE SAME AS EACH OTHER. CLEARLY CONVENIENCE COMES AT A PRICE BECAUSE OFTENTIMES BOTH ARE STILL AT LEAST $100 MORE THAN THE CHEAPEST ONE-STOP FLIGHTS ON A GIVEN DAY. SO WILL THIS NEW FLIGHT BRING MORE COMPETITION? IT MIGHT. BUT AT THE SAME TIME, WE KNOW THE DEMAND IS SO HIGH AND DELTA. >> KNEW THAT GOING INTO IT. THAT AMERICAN IS PERFORMING WELL. AND THERE'S ENOUGH DEMAND TO SUPPORT BOTH JUST LIKE AMERICANS ROUTE THIS NEW SERVICE FROM DELTA WILL FLY BETWEEN HERE IN LAGUARDIA ONCE A BOTH FLIGHTS TO LOOK WARRIOR MORNING FLIGHTS, BUT JUST TAKES OFF AROUND 8 OR 9 O'CLOCK EACH MORNING BEFORE LANDING IN NEW YORK AROUND LUNCH TIME. IT SEEMS MOST DAYS DELTA'S RETURN FLIGHT LAND HERE AT 08:42PM. THAT IS CLOSE TO ABOUT THE SAME TIME AS AMERICAN FOR NOW. BUT THOSE TIMING OF THE DAY COULD CHANGE. CAN KILLER SAYS, AS ALWAYS, TULSA INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT IS LOOKING TO ADD MORE DIRECT FLIGHT OPTIONS FOR PEOPLE IN
