I think Delta has been pondering selling us or spinning us off as an IPO for quite some time, but I don't think we're officially for sale yet. That's probably why nobody's buying us. Personally, I don't think Delta will sell us (unless the price is right, of course). I think they'll hold onto us for whipsaw purposes and also they can directly control some of their regional lift by keeping us. If they IPO us, they can buy a majority stake in the company and still somewhat directly control regional lift.

I could be wrong. It has been known to happen from time to time.
