That being said, I don't ever want to go back to line bidding! It would be nice to monetize the amount of savings that gives the company compared to you guys.
I appreciate Raptor's response as well, but let's remember this began as a question regarding the accuracy of DALPA's contract comparison. I think it's clear now that DALPA didn't show the whole picture when comparing the FDX vacation system versus ours.
