They are literally preparing Comair for a merge with another regional, or holding company. They are doing it right in front of us, but some people are just too niave to see it.
Turbo...just because he asked about changing travel benefits doesn't mean he's naive about the company merging. DAL as a whole is streamlining all of its assets including its regional ops, ground handling, etc. Comair being a DAL asset (in theory at least

) is gonna feel that effect too. We could merge and still have the same travel benefits, its just that the flights are gonna be too full to get on anyways.
