Weather issues? You have one or two hubs with crappy weather and that'll happen.

SoCalGuy, that'd be self-help outside the scope of the RLA. You don't even want to suggest such a thing on a public forum. Lawsuit city.

The answer is pretty obvious, really. Delta finished their merger and intensified their operational focus. UAL is in the midst of the process.

It will be interesting to watch SWA.
