If United in this case is allowed to accelerate their aircraft deliveries due to reservatoin buy outs, then the feds should block United from operating those aircraft until smaller airlines get a chance to get their own aircraft. All in fairness afterall.

LCC/non-legacy airlines, this one's for you
