AA will be forced into BK. The three wo’s will be merged into one eventually and shrunk .
U a and DL will also be a lot smaller this time next year . It’s inevitable.
Bad time to be a pilot or a 121 pilot I should say .
Is swift air still hiring ?? 🤣😂

AA packages the aircraft and a sweet long term contract such that anyone doing due diligence will see value

There are ways to accomplish the same thing. There are money-men who are in the business of taking significant but calculated risks.

OO is not buying another regional in the near term, that didn't work out the last two times. Maybe only if the industry is permanently and drastically altered after covid, who knows.
