Well, I'd sorta figured that's what they did for the year or so when they were still operating as independent airlines. But I also figure that the actual doing is harder than the planning. Maybe I'm cutting them too much slack...

That's me speaking as a businessperson, where I guess I'm a bit sympathetic to the challenges of working within huge organizations. As a flyer I just want them to get their act together ASAP!
