This DIP financing gives Delta an out and in BK everything is fair game.
NOT true dude....the 70 seat jets are already doing all kinds of ex Continental routes, both mainline and express. Its ALL the United code now so its legal until a new contract is signed. They can't bring on any new ones, but they can move around the existing ones. I'm not trying to flame or argue, just stating what I know. Direct quote from a member of UAL management on a recent flight "we would rather get 50 people there on time than 70 there 4 hours late or not at all". Again not trying to flame, just sharing an experience. That article stating the Qs are going to a United carrier is out of Canada and also said some other things that aren't true. Not saying it won't happen but I do know that UALs strategy for the Qs has changed.
