Does seem like we may be right-sizing ourselves for some type of consolidation.
Now what's the over/under on ALK? Or HA?
IMO, the chess pieces are: AA, LCC, HA, and AK. There are also too many additional moving pieces (companies) to list with if this happens, then that happens outcomes. Most of the permutations have been discussed. AA can't buy AK. We'll see what happens with the AA contract / BK issue.
Personally, I'd rather see us hire and buy planes. I would like to move upward in this lifetime.
I'm also interested in seeing what happens with Frontier. I wonder if there is a market for that company anymore. I wonder if we have any folks that have left to go to HA or planning to try to go to AK. It would be interesting to see what the best decision for a junior pilot is, stay or go whenever the dust settles.
Holy cow is anyone beside T watching TN Vandy. Is this the first game of the year for Vandy when they haven't disappointed. Yeah I know, they still have time to disappoint.
