refute it all…..yup. Uh the President is obviously running for reelection a week later it’s a good move to stand aside for a new generation.

If you are AS and if you want to be a “big” airline you would be crazy not to try to grab us. But that’s a lot of (ifs)

It would make for a very interesting airline and I wonder with proper management and a much larger network it could be a pretty good competitor.

We aren't cheap at all. If we were a small business we would have an $8 million mortgage at 7% interest, and be at best bringing in $150k/yr in cash in the next few years. We are currently operating at a loss. We are a zombie company.

Stock is up 5% when JETS ETF is red. Investors are coming around. I don’t know if that’s because of an expected buyout or the actual turn around story of “Jet Forward.”

It could just be the Boeing bump after the 73 incident.

Alaska could probably fix that, especially in the context of a larger merged network.*

* Caveat: Assuming the HA integration goes well.

I thought about that. But to me that’s not a good reason to buy the stock. The incident aircraft was not a max, it was a 2009 model.
