I agree, ACL. I think it's great. LCC has ultra-low costs, and low revenue. The combined airline would need a hell of an increase in revenue to offset the increase in costs.

This actually helps our management farme their thinking about a substantial raise. They want to give us industry standard, and we want industry leading? This turns whatever we do into the standard. With two out of three large competitors paying "Delta Plus", United can match.

What could possibly go wrong now?
