That seems the case to me. I would still love to see some sort of short haul out of LAX to compete with LUV. During my relatively short commute out of LAX, you wouldn't imagine how many LUV pax asked me how to find the Bradley int'l terminal for their conx flights. If we could only capture some of that back, with our SYD and NRT connections. I could certainly understand that's not on top of the priority with route Planning at this moment.
