I'm headed to the Keys around labor day. Delta has a layover in ATL and I was hoping to spend a night, or long day there in between. Unfortunately, if you split the round trip flight into a multi-city it adds around 100-150 per person.
Know of any way around this? Is it possible to request the earliest flight into ATL and the latest flight out?

Let me look into this. It's likely a married segments issue, meaning the cheapest ticket you have is MSY-ATL-EYW combined instead of separate MSY-ATL and ATL-EYW. They've made it so most tickets require that the connection be less than 4 hours so that's what we're running into if I had to take a guess. I'll see what I can do.
ETA: After playing around with it, I'm seeing exactly what you're seeing. Roundtrip it's about $432, if you add in a layover or multicity it changes to $536. I've tried one-ways but that won't work since the ATL-EYW fare is real expensive. Your best bet if you want to stay in ATL for a night is to book the last possible connection of the day and have it be a very tight connection. If you miss it, they'll rebook you for the next available flight with seats (which would be the next morning)
If you wanted to fly American and get a long layover in Miami that is possible as it looks like their fares aren't for married segments
