What else?
Routes and planes. Yes I agree that ultimately there is more upside for sCAL pilots, but they did bring flying to the show. They do have 777's and they have pilots retiring, just not as many as sUAL. Plus they had 787s on order like we did.
We also got the individual leg overs, which is new.
I don't feel for a second it was a bad merger. I'm pretty pleased overall.
