From: DOWNGRADE COMPLETE: Thanks Gary. Thanks SWAPA.
My assumption, Whack, is that lessons were learned by union negotiators and industry watchers, and the next integration would correct the errors. The scales would shift so that no group is so decisively benefitted at the expense of another (Which can only negatively effect me, so ... since all politics are local, I'm against.) Nobody is going to ask you or I, but I think a merger can only hurt FOs right now.

I do think its hysterical that OTZladner can claim he knows what the future holds, can drop hints on a public forum and it doesn't at all violate any NDAs or SEC insider trading violations.

he's placed bets on every horse on the track....one of them has to be a winner right? You can't be wrong when you say everything and anything can possibly, maybe, happen and when it doesn't, just say, "things changed"..... In the last 3 months, we've been 3 months away from buying HA, being bought by SW, buying JB, growing, shrinking, and shrinking while growing. If OTZ truly had any inside info, he wouldn't say anything. Those with the most to say typically say the least. I noticed he's generalizing now and just saying, "things are going to change soon". Can't be wrong when you state the obvious.

But since we're all placing bets, I'm putting chips on a Sun Country merger. AS gets to needle DAL in MSP, they're small enough to digest and allows AS to maintain control while keeping potential takeovers at a distance, the 800 freighter conversions could fold into the prime cargo deal, Sun Country just pulled out of HA which could be some sort of pre-divestiture and last but not least.....it would throw our contract into an eventual arbitration decision. Disclaimer: I have no inside knowledge and this is just my opinion! Just in case there's a SYmidwest out there

I believe that is more accurately known as "Carebell".
Did anyone else notice the airline press releases on masks? Every airline made a professional statement, just like a business should. Alaska had to throw in that we should be kind to one another during this difficult transitional time. A group hug over mask removal, how caring.
