Also removing a couple A330 frames.

Hyper competitive market, elevated oil, and (relatively) high CASM A310 (even in TS config when compared to AC 777HD) seals the fate for TS.

They'll pull back TATL and focus on Carrib / South

AC likely sees some light at the end of the tunnel .... As the players drop/reduce, fares are bound to rise, all else equal
That the rogue planes are powered by unicorns and crewed by fairies should also help.
