I see you've made a lot of statements WRT this lately. Your statements make it clear you don't understand what's going on. For one, Open skies isn't in effect everywhere. And maybe you haven't been paying attention, but UCAL & DAL are fighting to regain scope. SWA continues their fight everyday. The same goes for FedEx and UPS. Delta pilots continue to be actively engaged in Joint Ventures. The current JV between DAL/Air France/KLM/Alitalia requires that 50% of the flying goes to Delta. The other 50% is divided among the remaining 3 pilot groups. Things aren't perfect, but we are working on improving them. You really shouldn't make blanket statements about things you aren't familiar with.
