American Airlines WANTS to purchase JB. I WANT to have a 3-way with the two prettiest girls at the party. But 60% of the time I only get to have that 3-way 75% of the time.

Get it?

Why post a thread title that is designed to convey false information. Is there a point to not being honest?

When an airline buys another, after the money changes hands there is one thing that always happens.....

A complete and accurate transfer of the records of those pilots in the pool. If it happens, I'm sure you'll be good to go.

For the right price, either are easily achievable. What's JB trading at right now?

If this merger were to happen, you can kiss being in the pool goodbye. American has well over a thousand furloughs that would be offered a job first, past history shows pools are commonly flushed, and the resulting airline would most likely shrink - resulting in less need for newhires or recalls.
