Where’d you get this analysis? If true why wouldn’t F9/NK just expand into those non-overlapping JB markets. Our (NK) growth has been either airframe or crew (or both) constrained since this ULCC thing started. Never heard we don’t have any more markets. For the record I’m not hitched to either merger.
