As someone from NK and now at WN, I would have loved to get you all over here, great group indeed, however, I have to agree that the last thing WN needs now is another aircraft with issues, plus we don't need larger planes, we need smaller. While I once thought it was a possibility, I think the only avenue for us is something akin to a Breeze or making a move on Hawaiin. While Hawaiin doesn't have a glut of small planes, they do have heavies, something that would allow us to expand if leadership went that route. This is all conjecture however as I am not an airline CEO and honestly have no idea of all the nuances and complexities something like this entails.
