I wholly agree. Its just the timing of it all that makes it suspicious. It will be interesting to see how many frequencies and what the turn times change to throughout 2015 on DAL to IAH. It could be that United shot themselves in the foot with this; trying to keep Delta out and by doing so, adding frequencies that they can possibly lose a lot of money on.
Why did they drop from 16x a day to 6? Probably has something to do with money. I bet those 12 frequencies go back down to 6 again before long.
