And do what with it

Not trying to sound sarcastic/antagonistic at all; but what on earth would DL do with routes like SFO-PVG? ORD-HKG?
What would they fly them with... 15 lemon M11s? Pony up the money to buy/lease 744s into the fleet?

UA would be better off selling its LHR routes, and DL would be in a better position to take them; not pacific.
