I'm not disputing any of that, I'm just saying that there very much ought to be deeper integration between the two carriers and their various partners and it's a big missed opportunity by IAG. They've fallen into the same "we'll merge but keep the two companies as separate as possible" trap that AF/KL and Daimler/Chrysler fell into.
