Their Mikles now directly transfer to skymiles as well. Makes me wonder if a we buy em or SKW does and we start a domestic cs with them and reduce thenalk one. That would hurt ALK's market cap to the point they may be a buyout target. Just thinking aloud.
The AS code share over all (despite the rampant abuse in large markets) actually does make sense. Frontier OTOH brings pretty much nothing to the table by comparison. They don't fly to that many places DL and its partners don't already, and most of where they do is RJ's anyway.
I hope RA is smart enough to know that we would require a sporty move like that to be an asset sale that falls far below "federal merger law".
