But if they wait and we say no, then Delta has to consider that they'd go to all the trouble of starting up a new regional only to have DALPA then challenge it on the same grounds of "we signed an agreement with Compass, and this new regional isn't Compass", have DALPA win, and then they've wasted all that time and money.
