Sure bet we could hit Latin America from both.
(allows the US to get around issues with transitory passengers on US soil. Not GUM but the other two)
Yea, a hub in Beijing or Shanghai would be nice, but I can see the Chinese as demanding too much - making it not profitable for us. Sure - they might allow us to fly a few routes from S. Asia to Shanghai, but not the profitable ones. I think they are still very protectionist over there.
