With respect, I think you will find that the company were never going to allow more than 20% QAL in the startup.
It had nothing to do with the wishes of the membership or the union, and I doubt they have actually achieved that figure.
So my point is that the FAAA never discouraged transfers to A380, but the company, well that's a different story.

As far as people transferring to follow the LAX's, as I already said, no-one will do so past aircraft number 4 if the limit is not extended.
