I hope that we are pleasantly surprised at the results. With all the parties involved, I bet the status quo of NRT will be seen as a win, and given the lopsided nature of everyone involved, that is probably going to be very true.
The unknown is always scary, but that's life. I would think that the JAL thing is positive for us. JAL will be shrinking, and they will need international lift. They will also need feed for their domestic operation. AF/KLM and DAL can easily provide what they can not get by just themselves.
I guess this is just the way I have to look at things if I want to survive. I've got 30+ years until mandatory retirement age, and I want to make it. That doesn't mean I want to fly that long, just that I want to make it to that point.
