I have no idea what they are, but just food for thought. This mentality of the rates being "temporary until the JB merger" could turn out to be a fallacy.
I think your assumption is that there wouldn’t be a fails safe that if the merger fails we go back to the table. This is probably at best a 2 year deal assuming we either merge and negotiate a jcba or the merger fails and we go back to the table with spirit. So no I doubt these rates should be considered longer term
