It would link east and west and best of all give the finger to delta in their own turf JFK.
It would make for a great company.
I have never bought into the different aircraft problem, just look at Delta. There are flights the 737 is good for and there are prefect Airbus/190 flights. I do think jetblue will be merged with someone in the future, I just can't see us small guys being able to beat back the big 4 alone.
