There would be pros/cons to a merger with UAL. I don’t think the SLI would go well for JB pilots though...

Whoa, you've been hoarding JBLU shares since 2010 waiting on a single big score? I've been selling immediately and ended up paying off my house, combined with previous years' profit sharing. I've been diversifying the CSPP stock ever since. Never marry a stock.

Normally I agree with you on stocks, I invest in lots of stocks. But yes I’ve been viewing my CSPP as my one big score still only cost basis average of around 11.50 for all my JBLU. Only time will tell who does better. Wait you get profit sharing , lol!!!

A few state AGs are pushing back hard against the DOJ in this merger. Specifically, MA, NY, and CA. United and Jetblue with those state AGs anti merger will be a tough sell. Big divestiture for sure would happen. I imagine NY and MA would cry foul. Those consumers will get to block a future merger. The biggest loser will be B6 labor taking it straight in the nuts.

Why would B6 labor get screwed in a merger that won't get approved anyway?

Southwest used to negotiate it for their pilots at their layover bars. Some places still have it, but it used to be a requirement. Called the 1-2-3 rule. Obviously drinking isn't looked at like it used to be in our profession. Thought this was universal knowledge, but I guess some of us are getting older.
