It might pass Justice dept. muster because VA is hardly the scale of the remaining LCCs...Alaska, JB, Allegiant or even Hawaiian. DAL has about 100 of the A320 family with 45 321s coming soon...VAs complement would make a nice addition...Wondering about the seniority list? Simple....status and category...no DOH.

There....done deal...any questions?
