Evens I'd wager.

Not worth a big punt, but with DWC capacity, competition from emerging lowcost markets and cost escalation, reduced loading (how many empty seats?), the feckless vicissitudes of cost sensitive customers, profit erosion combined with a broken spoke on the Hub business model as the creaking wagon wheel disappears down low oil revenue lane, anything is possible.

As a corollary, it would provide a useful pool of crew to feed the long haul fleets without the inherent nervous twitch that 250 hr MPL's provide.
