Yeah, I'm really confused about this. According to a capt who flew with an fo that flew with our 757 fleet capt, we would continue domestic and international like oldDelta. Then I had breakfast with a couple of ER guys from LAX that said they were told we are going all international like old NWA. Soooooooo, guess we will see eh? Flexibility is the key to marketing power?
