Agreed, but we need to wait a few years for AS/HA to settle down and SWA to stabilize with their activist investor. Also need to show we can actually make profits (on a smaller route structure than before) and then we might see a merger.

Nightmare scenario is the profits never materialize and/or SWA merges with AS, once again leaving us without a dance partner with less and less relevancy in our “core” markets
