Thoughts?

This is purely a speculation piece. And what does it have to do with AA as your title suggests? Maybe fix the title to AK...

I think Greek yogurt does a fine job standing in for sour cream.

Better even.

Can you not do such a misleading title? We are the same ones who complain when the media makes inaccurate/misleading titles in their articles. I guess we are not any better. Nothing is official and it's all speculations and rumors. Until then, you can say "AK/B6 Merger?"

"This idea, rumored for years, is gaining traction again among insiders because of Hawaiian Airlines’ crucial role."........LOL insiders you mean like Pilots at thier Crashpads and on each others jumpseat.

"Together, they could create a powerhouse that serves Hawaii travelers across the country while seriously taking on the big four airlines—Delta, United, American, and Southwest"

Oh I don't doubt it'd be a powerhouse but not because of the Hawaii markets. The sabrematricians at legacies will tell you Hawaii is basically a giant waste of money...it is only kept around to entice the frequent fliers with high status to cash in thier points.
The money is in the Transpacific market but a wee little bit more Eastbound like Korea, Japan, China, and Taiwan.

But this publication/website probably has a mostly Hawaiian readership so I am not surprised.

"It's Official" is the biggest sh!tpost title ever. Go back to your C-17, nerd.

If you want to work for an airline that slowly shrinks in mainline aircraft for the 7 years you have been employed there. Being aquired by AK would be amazing...

"Its official! I'm posting a clickbait headline with no actual verifiable source of information and waiting for the reaction!"

Thanks for your reaction! 😁
