exactly why they think that, I'm not sure. I'd say it would be ridiculous for them to expect Delta to not give any additional CRJ flying they have to their own wholly owned but then Alaska did give some of Horizin's best routes to Skywest. Ridiculous things do happen.
Define best routes... and it doesn’t make for good business to send QX 175’s back east with no MX support... Don’t forget the first few months of Compass being out West.. and the teething that caused before MX was in place..
