I would tell you but my crystal ball hasn't been working right recently. I guess the couple thousand pilots on furlough right now dont have a working one either.

Many investors have gotten rich off speculation. My crystal ball says opportunity.

I would agree. You might see something like JB + Frontier or Frontier + Spirit, or some combination there of. I really don't see an AA/BA combo, at least in the near term, although you might get some sort of advanced code share past Antitrust.

Maybe that is where the gubmint will get their slots at JFK (and EWR?) to auction... because that merger wouldn't make it past the anti-trust hearings...
