Default FDX & Delta discounts

Guys,

IIRC, in the pre 911 days, FedEx used DL as much as possible for DH crews to operate revenue trips, and DL employees were given discount shipping privileges as quid pro quo.

Dl cancelled the discounted business tickets for dh business crews, and raised the prices to the equivaent of full fare. The FDX shot across the bow was to cancel interline shipping discounts for DL. Lose, lose.

Maybe it's time for both sides to re-think......FDX dh's a tremendous number of crews, and DL/NW folks do a lot of Xmas shipping.

Scoop and ACL, you guys seem to know a birdie on the 4th floor, why not run this by them?

Regards,
FD
