My thoughts exactly - the better PRASM is a byproduct of manufactured/artificial supply constraint vs a truly improving investment in United by customers.

This is an illustration of the flawed approach to running this company that stems from a dysfunctional BOD - hitting artificial number targets on earnings reports to charm the stock market is not how you run a service business, it's how you destroy it.
