Why does DFW stay the most senior?

AAL, despite being something like $50B in debt, has found the time and resources to limit our ability to get gate space.

With $2 billion a year in debt service I’d be amazed if they can sustain the price matching. Unfortunately, APA has now waived scope for a couple years, so the gates may be tied up by legions of 50 seaters.

aka it’s the most senior.

People like to live there, for a number of reasons. Of course, I am biased.

I mean in theory this should all improve as they bring the 19's back online correct?
