Then there's the dual subsidized foreign EGO airlines that will dump super premium widebodies into just about every large US city simply because they over ordered and have no place to put them.

Will DL keep culling capacity to fund all of that, or will DL eventually respond by competiting ruthlessly even if it means a reduction in Q over Q paper numbers for a while?
