I get it. Should that route/theatre experience greater than a 50% growth in capacity, all of which will be by VA and none by DL, then growth after that will trigger the growth requirements.
I'm far more concerned with the 2:1 imbalance now and the potential 3:1 imbalance we are giving them than I am about the growth after that point. Its doubtful there will ever be growth beyond that point unless UAL or Qantas cancells service. Both of which have a zero chance of happening.
Like tsquare said, this is our pot of gold, not theirs. We just gave a tiny podunk upstart underdog dominance over us for that theatre forever, with no real chance of an upside. Although I guess DL mainline might get a small portion of the non AS, non DCI traffic that flows through our west coast nonhubs.
