I'm sure that's hilarious, if I only understood it. All I know, is that I feel a little like this right now ... I don't recall sleeping with either of them, well maybe Anderson, a little, but I voted "no."

How quaint and gentle a picture this paints! Let's hope it's not something else.

I think this is a massive defensive move by DAL. Not only does it help DAL gain some ground on UAL and AA in LHR, but it also prevents airlines like Qatar, Emirates, and Eithad from gaining ground in LHR.

I think it will also have a solidifying effect in JFK for DAL. I am sure there will be shuttle type schedules between LHR/JFK.
