I think he means feeding huge hubs on each side of the Atlantic, letting the respecting alliance partner do the final destination in Europe or the US, and forego point-to point.
Works perfect until you drop the higher yielding pax, who don't want two connections in the middle of their Chicago-Edinuburgh, or Lyon-Miami, or Nashville-Budapest... etc.
Unless he's upset about the blue carpets in the cockpit.

Our hubs to a codeshare's hub. DAL was more of a point to point airline. I forget how many destinations we had in Europe before the merger... and have steadily watched them erode to basically AMS/FRA/LHR etc etc...
Don't get me wrong.. I know it is all about economic times and all.. but we have retrenched to the NWA strongholds...
My category has been absolutely slaughtered since the merger.
