if United EVER beats DL on a yearly profit then DL is having problems.
there is a lot of Apples to Apples we can compare between DL/UA and when you compare those United is leading in a lot of regards but profit will always be apples to oranges because of ATL.
This. Having such a cheap fortress hub in ATL is a game changer.
