Yes and we do. We get three Flight a year that are removed from bundle 1. Also the JV is Europe but we fly other flights that fly the Atlantic that do not land in Europe that are not part of Bundle 1. Not many but a few. :rolleyes:

Three whole flights a year? Seems utterly insignificant. Am I missing something?

question for DALPA (since presumably you are tracking this): how does that compare to KLM/AF?

AF/KLM is losing big $$$ right now. I see things coming back our way soon. They're replacing airplanes, not growing.

That's no excuse for the contractually out-of-limits flying balance we're currently subjected to...which is why I brought it up.

I don't care if they're losing money.

They aren't contractually out of balance. That was corrected by an LOA by an unelected DALPA official without memrat.:rolleyes:

I'm gonna make that Bacon's talking point number 1.

I'm trying to help ya out brother. You can just use the number instead of typing so much..

Delta Air Lines Inc. is the largest U.S. airline, operating hubs in Atlanta, Cincinnati, Detroit, Memphis, and Salt Lake with a sizable presence in Los Angeles and New York City. Internationally, Delta is the largest transatlantic carrier and has also established a large Latin America presence this decade.

Delta's previous quarter was the most profitable December quarter in its history as most of its financial metrics exceeded the consensus estimates with a strong passenger unit revenue growth (PRASM) in December (13% y-y). Operating margins were at the high end of the guidance as stronger demand contributed to its earnings upside.

Delta's 1Q 2012 guidance suggests strong outlook as revenue trends are expected to remain robust with January's PRASM growth coming in at 15%. Delta's PRASM gains are expected to outpace the industry in 2012 as it gains market share in large corporate accounts due to cost convergence and fare unbundling. Demand driven fears have pulled down Delta's EV/EBITDA multiple during the last couple of quarters. I believe the current valuation levels are attractive and recommend a buy.""

We can go through this again. They were in compliance and AZ was added. Our share went to 47.2 based on all eask's at that time. We got 50-50. We are in a new measurement period, so there is not contractually corrective mechanism for a few more years. Perfect, heck no but it is what we have.

AZ was added via mou per language already in place in loa16.

Of course when we get to 48.5 or above a new measurement period starts.......
