Saw this on the last post. It's so crazy that I had to open up a WT post to check it out for myself. Yep. There it is in all it's glory.WorldTraveler said:Airlines say what they need to say to the DOT. What happens in real life is considerable different.
So, WT - are you suggesting that it is Delta's corporate policy to be willfully disingenuous with the DOT when it comes to route authorities? If it's a concious decision/policy (as you suggest), then some would call that fraud. I'm not a lawyer, but I know that fraud is typically a bad thing and gets people into heaps and heaps of trouble.
Come to think of it, maybe WT is onto something. Maybe this is the corporate policy at Delta. Maybe DOT figured that out in the HND case. And maybe - just maybe - that's why they put such tight handcuffs on Delta on the SEA-HND route. Now it makes sense. Thanks for helping me understand that, WT.
I'll be putting the ignore back on now.
