You think that neither pilot group has the ability to disrupt operations? Really? Too young to remember America West/US Airways merger?

Post something of substance "1seat/1engine" or go running like your cry baby SWACapt friend did. (Think his last post was something like, "I told HSLD on you, now I'm taking my toys and going home.")
I'll show you what substance consists of:
Airtran Deal Could Hold Southwest Back: Deutsche Bank - Stocks To Watch Today - Barrons.com
Deutsche Bank analyst Michael Linenberg downgraded
Southwest (
LUV) today to Hold from Buy on concerns that it will have trouble integrating Airtran, the company it bought earlier this year. Southwest plans to integrate Airtran’s routes next year.
“The key downside risk factor for LUV, in our view, is integration risk given that
airline mergers are complex and time consuming as disparate technology systems, labor groups, cultures, fleets, and facilities are combined,” Linenberg writes.
He dropped his price target to $9 from $16. Southwest closed on Monday at $7.97, up 3.6%.
SWAPA & WN management definitely get an "F" for merging two employee groups/airlines, but you guys just keep up that "entitlement mentality" and let me know how that works out in ten years.
Fly safe,
