What happens if we were to perhaps purchase Alaska? Where do you think they would want to start integrating into that SL? We need to think before we leap and not regret this decision later.
More info please. Fireworks show regarding what? If we purchase AK, (which I don't consider a real possibility), since they have no 737-900, they would not be considered a career expectation for them. I don't see that as an issue. Besides, we cannot base our negotiations on what might happen down the road.. well not completely anyway.. we'd be foolish to not at least consider that possibility. And I agree that we need to tread carefully, but what we have now is retarded.
Sorry about the A$$wipe thing.. I owe you a beer.. even though you started it.
