Nope. When Delta became DIP during chpt 13 for endeavor they sawed off the United arm as a FOAD to United and our judge let them do it because in 2014 it made no sense to dump money into us there were still 12-14 regionals.

Republic was smart suckering Delta into DIP for their chpt13 because united and Murican came in as financial partners to republic judge and that meant republic could saw off the whole 50 seat delta market, which delta intended to stick them with post BK at a breakeven rate. Ever wonder why we started loading up on 50 seaters instead of getting 175s?
