Curious why the CEO of both airlines feel compelled to make a joint announcement over something as common place as code share. And the announcement is to be made in Seattle. Can anything be read into this choice? The plot thickens!

Why? Adding 1500 guys in wouldn't be THAT hard and with relative seniority you keep your own little status quo. Nobody moves way up, nobody moves way down. I grant you that adding 1500 737 guys and their jets would take a while to integrate but if I was a DAL competitor, I would be very afraid if that happened.

Where did you hear this? I thought they were still in L.A. with another session today.
