Grievous oversight admitted. Consider me amply chastised.

"Probably"? I'll accept "maybe," but I still think the numbers will prove me right. However, that's not the point. While I don't necessarily expect CO to compete price for price with an LLC (which can pick and choose the routes on which it does especially well), I do expect CLE-XXX and CAK-XXX to be competitive in coach among legacy carriers—
UNLESS there's some significant product/service advantage. Thus my question about US sucking vs. CO being full of itself.
