AA had been sending passengers to Delta at a 5 to 1 rate, so not a light user either. Will be a lot tougher at JFK and LGA to deal with IRROPS on AA.
I wonder if UA's rate was also in the 5:1 range?
In any event, this is good news. UA wins this comparison with AA by not making a cheap, customer unfriendly move.
