My bet is eventually two, if not all three, WO will be combined into one airline. Reduces overhead costs.
I know some say each has a separate certificate, so it can’t happen. Matter of time to get everything under one company.
i know some say they want three to whipsaw against each other. In the current environment, in the next few years, there is not much whipsawing to go around.

We were having a hard time filling classes recently, so we were understaffed for the flying that was coming pre-COVID. The word last winter was to expect a summer of credit pushes.
Compass and GoJet were on their ways out with Delta already. Delta axed their flying early, which meant there was less pain to spread. OO went west. We're filling the gaps in ATL, DTW, and (to a lesser extent) MSP.
We're the cheapest DCI carrier left. Our pilot pay is higher, but we don't have the overhead that other airlines do. We use a lot of Delta infrastructure, which doesn't cost Delta much more.
In conclusion? Still extremely lucky.

Unfortunaley, probably around 30-40% of the people who just got their furlough notices are guys that “came over”.
Timing is everything in the industry. It’s also mostly blind luck.
Most of those guys fought through a lot of rough times at EGL on to get to AA and suddenly find even harder times.
