F9 merger is the best opportunity to keep the bases we have due to the simple model of how we fly, city pairs.
JBLU might get you some more money hourly but at what cost. Devil is in the details.
The displacement bid was just testing the waters. Something is going to get the ax. After any merger there is going to be some house cleaning, guaranteed. Doesn't matter which airline.
Personal bet: I bet DTW and DFW are the most vulnerable. DFW prob more.
