You're upset with my opinion about someone not wanting to buy Jetblue because of that $8.5B in debt. Also that BK doesn't just "wipe out debt".
I'm not sure what the "fascination" is with my opinions on this issue. I've repeated what we have been told by senior management (its asked at every major company meeting) and we get the same answer. Even well before the partnership Kirby said "They have nothing we need but we would like to get some slots in JFK". About a year later they announced the partnership.
2019 was the first "United is buying Jetblue" rumor on APC, and here we are 7 years later and still nothing. I'm waiting...
I think we are more fascinated with why you lie on an airline pilot forum claiming you are a wide body CA with nothing to lose, yet you are diving deep into NK's BK docket, looking under JB's skirt and still have time to comment non-stop in every other airline's sub.
So either your wife and kids hate you or you are a junior UA pilot who has nothing better to do and are scared of losing opportunities in a theoretical merger. Now which one is more likely?
Do you really think people are THAT dumb? You don't pass the smell test, brah.
ALSO - what widebody CA who has been at a legacy for 20+ years actually believe what AIRLINE MANAGEMENT tells them?
