I think if DL can sustain it's expansion and service then they stand a chance to make some real inroad into AS Remember when you compare a very targeted service Alaska to ---- it will be different when you get to SEATAC or elsewhere to change planes, then your in "line" with the multitude of DL FF looking for upgrades. Just saying from experience as a former high mileage flyer from the east coast on DL. If you have not been upgraded prior to when you get to the gate it's full contact sport!!!!!
