That's a pretty wide over simplification. If CASM is the main (and almost only) controlling variable then all we can do is sit here and let them slowly dominate all of our domestic lift on their terms. All we can do is reduce capacity to squeeze revenues, outright gifting them CASM controlling growth while we raise our own CASM by comparison.

We're doomed I tell ya. Doomed! All our pax are belong to them!
