It would make more sense to me to view Hawaiian as an acquisition than to dive into the current Alaska/Virgin debacle.
Don’t forget that airlines also become major shareholders in other carriers without a full purchase.
We are all just spitballing here. I’m the guy that doesn’t believe most airline speculation until the gear is in the well and I’m in the seat.
That post wasn’t meant as a stab at you. My apologies if you took it that way. I was just stating my own pilot/CEO opinion which is exactly what you were doing, so I am equally guilty.
I think we agree more than we disagree. I think this is a positive step for our airline, but I don’t think it is going to change anyone’s game like some of our cheerleader brethren.
