Must sorta disagree here...PHL is not huge for either airline and it certainly looks like some synergy is in practice there already. My flight home from Do IV came into one of the UA gates. While I agree that the cooperation should (and probably will) filter downward from the hubs and hublets to the outstations, it looks like there are outstations practicing shared services already, unless that night at PHL was an oddity.
