This was bound to happen sooner or later!
Problem begins when CAL continues to take delivery of aircraft before the merger is complete. How much flying can you continue to swap if CAL is adding block hours and adding pilots while UAL is not? This will become rather uneven rather quickly. The only route I have heard was IAH-LIM.
