So, if we started flying all those routes ....and the many others that I didn’t list, your comment would be....nothing new( the insinuation being that it’s not “growth”.....nothing more than a re-capture of status quo)?

We still might have some Pan Am guys here.....using your metric, if we picked up round-the-world flights, it would be “Nothing new”?

At the expense of being called an out of touch company cheerleader, I’ll just say.....”It’s good, I’m glad to see the—————!”
Ok. That’s some pretzel logic there but, how about we call it a “resumption of service?”
