Would the government allow more consolidation?

I could see if LCC was split in two but if we acquired CLT/PHL Lord help us. We'd acquire LCC and shut down CLT and then one day PHL but we'd keep NYC! Which we already have anyways.

But none of this would happen before we get the seniority list together and then of course the LCC pilots would want DOH and then to vote out ALPA. Boy doesn't that just sound like fun!

Or we acquire the America West pilots, who want relative seniority. We get PHX, Ferd would be ecstatic.

So really the only real winners here is Ferd.

And when Ferd wins, we all win.
