Only the cheapest and dodgiest survive.
True, don't disagree. But the ONLY point was tied into what you said. Only the cheapest, historically. UAL doesn't care ONE BIT about the (lack of) quality of regional feed.
However, since DAL bought PNCL, bankrupted them, got their costs super low, I have no idea how their numbers and metrics look.
Also, ACA wasn't all UAL feed. They did a small bit of DelCon as well from summer 2000 till late 2004.
