I do want to make one comment on the safety programs. Have you read them?
Not all safety programs are created equal. AA and DL have set the benchmark. Most carriers have ASAP, but most are not on par with AA or DL, or even close. The ASAP in the TA would set a new, higher, bar. The company might come back in the future with a "boiler plate" ASAP and FOQA. The names the same, but it ends there.
So, should we consider the safety programs as part of this mix? In light of the above, I think we would be foolish not to.

All those profit numbers are economic gains are obviously true. The real risk to the economy with the events in the middle east over the past month or so are also true. It will be many months before we know how 2011 will go.I do want to make one comment on the safety programs. Have you read them?
