back to JB, merger’s are mostly about reducing competition. It would benefit us if UA and JB tie up. They would have to decrease service along the east coast to Florida. That a win for us. It would distract UA and perhaps add a marketing challenge as to how to keep UA product on tract and able to capture the JB hVC . Hard to say all mergers are a gamble and most really cost more in long run and don’t really add long term market gains. No more then if the weaker company just shut down the remaining ones slowly added in the capacity in a productive, strategic and profitable manner.
