It’s extremely high CASM. Cape doing it on piston twins with a handful of people on each one is a lot better suited for it than we are on an E190. Our codeshare with them in that route isn’t exactly a threat to our growth, nor taking measurable business from jetblue pilots. I’ve said repeatedly codeshares on routes we can’t feasibly do ourselves or with equipment we don't have aren’t the problem. The problem is codesharing on routes we can feasibly do ourselves with equipment we have (a la Alaska/possibly Moxy), which this TA allows in basically unlimited fashion. Our west coast growth failure, with no plan right now, leaves ALK codeshares as a real possibility, eliminating our attempts to get slots/gate space/organic growth intra west coast. Please tell me what exactly you think I don’t know about this? I’m sure it’s plenty, but I’d like you to enlighten me.
