Can I get an AMEN from the congregation? This is just dumb to talk about something that probably won't happen and if it did, the DOJ probably wouldn't approve it. Too much overlap, too many slots in slotted airports, and too close to a monopoly in NYC. Besides, if it did begin to happen Delta and American would have something to say about it. Also, Delta has more money than anyone right now so in a bidding war, they would probably win. Or at least elevate the cost beyond where it actually makes sense.
