Sometimes it is a little of both based on the equipment requirements of the team. For instance, it is not out of the question for the Indians to give Continental free marketing in exchange for cheaper charter contracts.

Northwest, on the other hand, had the Browns charter contract last year but was not a marketing partner. NW used 742s and 753s depending on destination and size of roster/guest list.
