I would guess during the next economic downturn when airlines start losing lots of money again. I think a more likely scenario in the next year or two will be the purchase of one of the LCC's. I know we have all heard the Delta/JetBlue rumor, but I think a Delta/Alaska deal is more likely. Delta would become a major west coast player overnight with that deal and the DOJ would probably approve it. The DOJ probably wouldn't even entertain a Delta/JetBlue merger. Also there would be no fleet problems with a Delta/Alaska merger.
