Denny, I'm using your post as a springboard, as you've got the major points down.
But it's all DALPA's fault that all the beach flying is going to be flown by a new JV with JAL subcontracted furloughed DAL pilots with flow through rights to ASA after the NRT hub is shut down so JAL can feed us through HND with the 6 allowed total frequencies, but we're getting JAL's cargo division with a B scale...
Sheesh...
1. There is no JAL deal. If there were, there would have to be SEC disclosures.
2. There is a US government Open Skies deal that could be very bad for DAL.
3. Somebody moved our cheese. Adapt to reality.
