Apparently UniForum has a deal with Delta for some non-uniform discount rate, while Usenix has a deal with American for a flat 35% or 40% discount. The rates were quite different, too - the Delta/Uniforum rate from Columbus, Ohio was slightly over $200, while the American/Usenix rate from Columbus was about $350. (I don't know what the regular fares are so I can't verify that comparable discounts were made.) Since American has their hub in Dallas, and Delta's hub is in Atlanta, I'm a little surprised that Delta is the carrier of choice for UniForum.
