250 + 400 = 650M

So why on the press releases does it say that $1.1B was set aside for PS?
"Delta announced profit sharing last week with a preliminary estimate of 16.4 percent. The airline has now received the final data, resulting in an actual payout of 16.58 percent, which means that even after the 5 percent advance in October, the Feb. 13 payout will be well in excess of last year’s 8.26 percent."
