For non-wholly owned carriers it will be tied to a long-term feed contract.

I'm sure many at APA might desire such a plan (and apparently some don't) and Parker might want it, but I think it will fail if they try it and depend on it at least as far as believing it will cause a mass migration to Envoy.
