It is the oligopoly of management's dreams.

Our economy is lackluster and picking up steam every day.

None of us can imagine the profits Delta will make. We will soon announce an additional $250 million in free cash flow in the second quarter.

Our profits will easily hit $5 billion in 2015.

Ferd we get 20% of the profit over $2.5 billion. Do you really want to give that up? This money is a small token of our billions in life changing concessions. Let's leave it alone and make the historic gains our MEC has committed to without concessions.
