Take a stand. Call your reps. Ensure we protect ourselves, our families and our profession during this set of contract negotiations.

Using your SEA centric model, put your YEG example next to a nonstop out of SEA that is $12 more and see what happens.
Finally, if SEA is the center of the world and all international traffic at Delta must flow through SEA, YVR makes a great substitute for the 300 million Americans who don't live within driving distance to SEA.
Dismissing the potential impact of 20 787s that are growth aircraft for a JV partner is disrespectful to those who value Section 1 of the PWA. Make no mistake about it, the plan is for Delta passengers to ride on 787s owned by WestJet.

The last time my in-laws went to Europe they flew Air Canada and connected in YYZ. 2 legs just like going through JFK on Delta (or one of it’s subsidiary equivalents) at about 2/3 the price. Westjet could do the same.
