Acronym reference[edit]
Do you think DAL is possibly a reference to Delta Air Lines? They both have the DAL intials. PotatoHead20 (talk) 14:42, June 28, 2020 (EDT)
- I'd say its more of a coincidence than anything. Since DAL is used as an official airline code/stock exchange acronym for Delta Air Lines, I don't think Nintendo would purposely make an acronym that could refer to a real-life trademarked name not owned by them, due to legal reasons and possible free advertisement for Delta. The fact that they share initials could go in a trivia section, but it would have to be noted that it is unknown whether it is intentional or not. ~ AlexBot2004 (Talk) 20:58, June 28, 2020 (EDT)
- I'd argue that it's more of a nod to Japan Airlines since both have a bird on their logos, although I decided to not put it in since that may just be coincidental. Decomposer 09:20, August 27, 2020 (EDT)
Separate Dodo Airlines page from the Airport?[edit]
This might be totally redundant, however I think we should have a little page for Dodo Airlines as a company, and the services they offer, along with the rewards point system. Of course, we don’t have to. Breaku (talk)
- It seems to me that the resulting pages wouldn't be very long and might contain a lot of similar information. If you'd like to mock-up what a Dodo Airlines page might look like in a sandbox that might be helpful to get a better idea of what you're thinking the new page might be like.
