So the enhanced protection of the TA is that we get to negotiate adequate production balances, even though the company isn't prevented from entering the JV anyway, and in any case the largest airline by far is letting the smallest by far keep the lion's share of the flying, unless of course they want more, which is fine. Am I reading this right?
I was wondering the same thing. The email started off with how awesome and protective this was, but then said they can do a massive increase while we decrease. I read it twice but still thought "nah, I must have read it backwards or something".

Is that seriously what we just agreed to?
