I just hope it’s on good terms while we’re still healthy, not a TWA type deal.
Place your bets. My guesses in order. Not my preference, but my best swag. AA, DAL, ALK, JB, SWA and UAL. UA is last because they have the most overlap from a DOT standpoint.
At this stage, all I hope is that it’s an ALPA carrier so there will at least be a kiss in it for us when it’s over. I’m afraid SWA or AA would try to (will) staple us.
Buckle up, it’s going to be an interesting ride over the next 5-7 years. Might be good, might be bad. All I know is that I’m just along for the ride. Good luck to us all.
Easy guys..dont give up the ship!
SWA came to LGA..BFD. SWA came to DCA..BFD. SWA came to ATL..BFD! Just hang in there..the locals will be loyal..you have a great airline..
