You couldn't be more wrong. Your argument implies that if AM can pay their pilots less and earn money on routes which would be unprofitable for DAL then they may as well do it. By that same argument, why not let AM do all the flying between Mexico and the US? They provide a similar product for XX% less labor costs. We could move our planes to other more profitable routes and stagnate while AM and our competitors grow. You badly missed the mark on this one.
