Not at all for me. If anything w/o the DEQMs I would end the yr at '0' EQMs and now will be a 1k and proabably earn it the hard way for 2011. Flew 54k during DEQM, w/o DEQM I wouldnt have flown UA nor 3 of the 4 trips
But still feel all the Carriers should have only done it on those Routes where they faced competition from the other US Carriers, instead of doing it system-wide.
My gain
