Here is a thought with the JV, if there are 20 flgihts from JFK-LHR, give AA/BA a wink wink and take our 7 from the DL/VA codeshare and knock it down to 4.
Just use 3 VA A380s (instead of 744/346/330/330) and 1 DL 764 or 333 and cut capacity by a crowd pleasing 5% on the route and free those 3 extra slots up!!!!
The good part about that, we don't have to fly the...

The 200's were going to lose more money than the cost of the new 900's so it's a neutral purchase.

Delta has a bright future. The financials look strong and management is excited about all our Joint Ventures and alliances.
They are making the Trainer refinery sound like a license to print money.
BUT - From a pilot perspective this Investor Day conference is nothing short of dismal.
Richard and Ed are making no bones about it.
They are planning to shrink the airline further.
Capacity will definitely be down in 2013 and down to possibly flat in 2014.
And if we go over this fiscal cliff and the economy tips back into recession - watch out, they are ready to park a bunch of jets.
