1. Stock prices was $80 last year. Now it is $40, with more planes, more pilots, more revenue.

2. We are the most profitable airline in the country.

3. Mainline fleet is aging. Our average plane age is 5.5 years and decreasing every month. Significant and valuable aircraft orders through 2021.

4. Pilots. Legacies will be hurting for pilots in the coming decade. They would get a fairly young force of 1400+ typed pilots.

5. Buyer would no longer have to discount against us on overlapping routes.

6. Routes. Significant, prized, south of the border routes.
