Lots of variables to take into account with hubs, route overlap, aircraft types, seniority integration issues, company control, etc.
I tend to think that it may not be a good thing for us as Comair, but we will have to wait and see. Selvaggio seems to think we will be okay (per the latest conference call), but that may just be corporate rhetoric.
