Or so that we can sign a 777 contract with SonAir; they've been rumored to want 777s for a long time.
There are three ways to do that:
1. Add passenger operations, management, and administration to Southern's OpSpecs.
2. Add the 777 operation, training program, and management to Atlas OpSpecs (redundant to Southern's operation).
3. Merge Southern into the Atlas certificate.
My money (and hope) is on option 3. Merging certificates is a big task, but then you can start a passenger operation the next day, and realize several other benefits of a merged operation.

(Atlas also owns 2 AeroLogic 777's and one Emirates 777)
I would hope that Atlas brings the TNT planes back stateside for us to fly...
