Scope above all? Why exposed for so long?

Nope. Just more "less growth". We're already at a multi-year low growth rate. And we could cut our already low growth rate by a further 75% and STILL sign new codeshares.

Ideally we would not allow any RJs and have very very limited codesharing. The TA doesn't allow RJs and has at least some limitations to codesharing. To me this is near industry leading, and a massive improvement over what we have now.
The latest MEC video out basically poses the scenario....Skywest has 100 E175-E2 on order. They're too heavy to be used at their current mainline partners. What's to stop them from replacing our E190s? Similar situation with TransStates and the Mitsubishi jet. "The threat is real."

Same can be said for Moxy.

So you're ok with *any* degree of improvement.. even if it's just crumbs and nowhere near what it should be?
Is there some rule that a 1st TA has to be just barely better than nothing? Or is this some arbitrary mental block most BJ pilots have?

Ok, Skywest Inc starts another certificate, called Skywest Blue, starts selling tickets on SkywestBlue.com, codeshares with JetBlue on all their West coast routes. As long as JB grows a tiny, tiny, tiny little bit, here's your RJs. Totally permissable. The "threat is real".

In your example Skwest is starting it’s own independent airline and assuming all the risk.

That's why I said *sell* tickets. You did say they have all those E175s that are on order too heavy for any existing mainline besides Alaska. Oh, Alaska, that brings me to my next point.

It's like you think the CEO is sitting around thinking, if only we could pull out of the West Coast and use codeshares.

Jetblue will either exist in the market or it won't and it'll use a codeshare to fill a space where it couldn't profitably exist. There's little upside to the codeshare. If there was money to be made there (especially LGB) we have the planes and infrastructure to have done it.

Either way, don't care anymore.
