Read carefully, he used the word "codeshare." That is how the majors can get around the scope clauses, republic airways or Skywest joins the star alliance. They sell a couple tickets on their own website but the majority are sold by United. I haven't read the bankruptcy paperwork but if it is the same type of "codeshare" that united has with Lufthansa and the rest of star alliance, it could be very bad for regional to mainline progression.
