The Problem Alaska Management has is this: None of us give a damn if their little merger experiment fails. It's laughable to think they're playing "hard ball" with a group of people that could care less if this deal ever closes. Both MEC's should just go home and forget all about this BS. This is 100% their problem. Who cares? BTW, They can Go ahead and Whip saw...see how quickly JD Powers (and customers) forget Alaska Airlines. If they want World War III, they can have it. It's their choice.
