I think the comment about AS ruling the pacific was a bit of a joke, we all know our management moves extremely conservatively, which might have something to do with us remaining independent for more than 75 years.
What are you using for gauging our size? Airplanes? Pilots? Couple months ago we were the 3rd largest airline in the country by market cap, behind delta, southwest & United/continental. I'm not sure where we stand right now but our stock is still rocking so I don't think anyone will be scooping us up anytime soon.
