I know, I was just trolling. Mostly. However I am curious as to one potential "end around" of the intent of our agreement with them.

Can Hawaiian use "inter island feed" from Delta marketing/network/sales/etc. to fill up a mainland-bound plane? IOW, can they get DL system pax that DAL pilots never fly, on some of those legs to fill up the mainland bound legs?

If so, that will take a bite out of some of our own mainland-HI flying because we fly to several cities there from the mainland. If HAL can do this, they can funnel DL pax from cities we fly to, and even from cities we don't, into mainland bound cities we do fly to. Win for HI, loss for DL.
