As much as it would be great to help the F9 pilots out, from a business perspective, they fly an airplane that DAL has previously snubbed their nose at. Their DCA slots are up for sale separately, and we just divested DCA slots.

I am going off memory here, but their 318's are leased, and if we would even entertain getting them, I am sure they would have to be returned to the leasing company.

Then again, they do have C-Series slots, but again, it is cheaper to swoop in and take them after RJET implodes.
