In 3 years he will be senior to 90 percent of the employees at a owned DCI carrier and have priority on their as well as mainline flights. Since DCI is a big part of our domestic system only someone with a really flawed logic process would want to go to the back of the line on those flights. Everything is a tradeoff. In this case its a great trade for the mainline. I suspec tthe only policy that some here would be happy with is that we go first on their flights and first on our flights.
