This is a great Delta timetable solely because of the 747 ad. I scanned the Atlanta schedule that shows a few 747 routes listed in red.

Florida Express was a low-fare jet airline based in Orlando that served points in Florida, the Midwest, and the mid-Atlantic states. The airline began operations in January 1984 with a fleet of BAC 1-11s. In order to increase their presence in the Florida market, Braniff [II] bought the Orlando-based Florida Express in 1988, bringing the return of some of the same BAC 1-11s that had flown with the original Braniff two decades earlier. Initially, it operated as Braniff Express before being eventually integrated into the carrier. In 1988 Braniff moved its headquarters from Dallas, Texas to Orlando, Florida.

Here's a story about their first day of operations:
