Can someone explain if the removal below means more codeshare/interline/etc. or not? Dallas news says more with enforceable restrictions. Good luck, don't let them insert loopholes into the actual TA.
"Tightened Section 1 language and metrics
Removal of Reciprocal Trans Border Interline and Route Authority/Slot Restricted Airports
Strengthened Reopener, Distribution, Furlough Protection Language (Sect 1). Any furloughs will trigger a wind down of all partnerships and none will then be allowed until all furloughed Pilots are recalled"
Sideletter 2015?:
Reduces Southwest Airlines' ability to Near International and Trans-Border codeshare and further restricts existing agreement to 2% of total ASMs and limits partnerships to Volaris-only and Mexico-only

"For Southwest Airlines, the potential new contract will allow the company to build limited partnerships with other airlines for near-international interline agreements and far-international codeshare, with enforceable restrictions."
