Sink;
It also allows them to get rid of some of the 777-300's that just came off of leases.
In addition to that, it is a great way to connect the Middle East and siphon traffic away from DXB and its major tenant. Of course they may do a route our two to the US.

That said, there is a contract awareness bulletin in the file library about it.

Maybe we should have a yearly report on what % of our (Delta and Skyteam) flying we're doing each year, which would cover scope at the lower and upper end, and confirmation it's all in agreement with our contract and the JV agreements. If delivery methods are a problem, even a yearly oral presentation at LEC meetings (for those that can be troubled to attend) would suffice.
I think 44 is doing something like this, so it may be as simple as importing it to 66.

Furthermore, if you are correct about the 777-300's, and a snapshot could be set at an appropriate date, with appropriate restrictions going forward, even the EU-US flight, in proper proportion, might be acceptable. I think we agree that the consequences of a good or poor JV agreement are significant. And ultimately, regardless of the virtues of any particular agreement with a new JV/SkyTeam partner, the fact remains that each addition makes any single pilot group less relevant.
I have strong opinions about JV's and Code Shares, and agree, we need to have thumbs up or down approval on all of em.
