RA was up for the challenge before and kicked *ss, it also depends on how much DL values MSP...if they continue to put all of the efforts into extremely capacity constraint airports...they will get worse, and MSP will wither and die.
Pan Am died because they got into a bidding war with Lorenzo with the purchase of NAL and overpaid, Pan Am died because they had old equipment and believed their own invincabilty and were arrogant. Pan Am died because they had the wrong people in critical positions, eg former pilot as CEO, Pan Am died because they dismantled the domestic system they bought from NAL. Pan Am was pushed over the edge by high interest rates and the bombing of Flight 103. Pan Am did not die because of the employees or unions.

Actually I think it would be great. SWA does short haul D does long haul and we can push the regionals out the door. SWA can grow to where all the regionals are and D can concentrate on going to all the international destinations. Growth for both. Ooo catchy..
