Those two are going to collide in the not too distant future when big D acquires AK.

IMO it doesn't make any sense. There is no need to buy the cow when you get the milk for free. I don't see it happening.

Very hard for my family and missing my mother's time in cancer before she passed was tough, but I was surrounded by a GREAT group of guys & gals. I do comment because I can see it from the outside and I see A LOT of potential for a great airline...but I think it's time to put down the cool-aid and stick up for what you believe is right...So Mookie - thanks for the 'warm wishes' and I'm glad I never had to fly w/ you - keep drinking the cool-aid.

Baja.
I'm sure as soon as you stop drinking the big D Kool-Aid you'll be making the same comments about them.

I stand by my statement. Good riddance...

Mookie

Why would DAL merge (marry) AS when they have friends with benefits?

That cow is too valuable. I'd be surprised if we stood by and watched another acquire it.
