It means both. Most people are assuming that the reason this is happening is because of the merger... in other words, no more VS on the newly minted airline.

Anythings possible, although I thought Virgin was trying to team together the rejects to create a 4th alliance.

How ironic, I asked about it exactly a year ago (to the day) :D

(OT: According to wikipedia, Branson says he'll be forming a fourth alliance, do you guys think this will increase competition, or complicate fragment award travel?)
