They might have to sell 200 seats and give the revenue to DAL, but they have 2000 seats across the Atlantic to JFK whereas we have 214 or 184... IOW, I don't see a limit on the number of flights they can provide across the Atlantic, but only the number of seats that can be revenue shared. So what it seems to me is that we have ceded that market to AF even though we get a piece.. albeit a small one.. of their action. How does this help us? I still see only 34 super premium widebodies on the DAL property.. and that many welded to the terminal everytime I am in CDG.
