So what you're saying is that Delta is making decisions for 2 airlines and operating 1.5 airlines. Or is it operating 2 airlines and profiting from 1.5, or is it revenue sharing for 2 airlines and owning 1.5 or is it... AHHHH! I'm so confused.

Whip, meet saw. Could we do this with 3 or 4 more airlines so we can make more profit(sharing).

In other words, we the Delta pilots, entered into a legally binding agreement with Delta. And Delta says that they don't have the ability to comply with that agreement.

Is that not illegal? In writing they agreed to perform X amount of flying and then later claim a JV partner will not pull down flying. If that's the case then we need a contract with Air France instead of Delta since they can't comply.

I was starting to miss that guy. Then James came. And I thought Sailing was back. But he answered to people who called him T Square. So I guess I still miss Sailingfun.

I guess they build credibility, NOT, by changing their stage name on a semi-anonomous board. So clever and sly!

That's the funny thing, they also got into a legally binding agreement with Air France, but apparently it's ok for them to ignore the agreement. I guess Delta is just passing it along.
