Hi!

"Hopefully Southwest will hire some of those Frontier pilots..." if you are living in an alternate universe, this could happen.

Currently, SWA is NOT hiring, so they will not be hiring any Frontier pilots.

If, on the other hand, SWA buys Frontier, they will have to integrate all the Frontier/Lynx pilots. If the Frontier/Lynx pilots feel that the integration is not fair (and, I assure you, if they are not integrated, they will not feel it is fair), the US gov't will step in with an arbitrator and he/she will do the integrating for SWA.
