I keep hearing about all this jazz about united and delta pulling contracts from RAH cause of competition. Its not going to happen.

a. Its a contract (can be broken various ways but i doubt there is a clause that covers if one of the parties involved buys an airline to compete with the other.)
b. BB is not that stupid, he would never bite the hand that feeds him....not yet at least. yeah you may not like him, but i think he knows how to run an airline.
c. Have any of you ever thought that there might be a little cahooting going on here. You think its possible that Delta and or United gave RAH their blessing in purchasing Midwest and Frontier to compete with good ole Southwest.

Because unless you've been in a box for 20 years. you might notice that WN has been handing the legacies arses to them. Maybe just maybe they, (Delta, United) would consider it advantageous for some of their partners to compete with southwest to run them out, or loose some market share of markets here and there. WN has been strong for a long while. But their fuel hedges are coming to an end. DEN isnt working like they planned and all in all loads are down system wide. I believe RAHs mainline codeshares would appreciate a little competetion if they could be on the side of the one who throws a blow at their main competition. Then again WN could almost buy Rjet for what they were willing to bid for F9. Lets wait and see.
