I don't believe this is true. Delta (via SONG) is doing just the opposite. Charging below market rates on routes in direct competition with us. In fact they are pulling Song planes off profitable routes and putting them on routes that lose money just to compete with us. This will eventually BK Song but until that happens we have very little pricing power there.
