Most airlines have mutilple hubs serving different regions of the country with one of those hubs being their primary hub (home base). For Delta, Atlanta is their primary hub, but they also have hubs in Cincinnati and Salt Lake City while Boston, Columbus OH, Dallas/Fort Worth, Ft. Lauderdale, New York, Orlando, and Tampa serve as "focus cities" with large operations (a few of these were once official hubs). Atlanta and New York are Delta's primary international gateways.

Southwest is the only major airline that doesn't rely on the "hub-and-spoke" system.
