Translation. Bankruptcy has nothing to do with fixing their revenue problems. Bankruptcy will fix the issues I listed which will give American some short term breathing room.
American has a long term revenue problem. The only way for them to increase revenues is to get bigger. They need to merge and make American Airlines bigger. They need to increase their extended network through codes shares and JV's. It is very consistent.
Face it, Carl, you are just shooting in the dark here. You have no data, no numbers, no analysis, nothing. Oh, you have some wire reporter from the AP. Wow, that seals the deal.
