This means nothing. Who are they going to fly for? (Midwest that just went to SKYW, US - that is a monopoly with AWAC and MESA, Delta or UA - PNCL doesn't have a support operation that is required by either of these carriers . . ., CAL - They want ERJ's for now, so who does that leave left?)
AirTran? Frontier? (I expect SKYW to win that and fly ASA planes in Denver)
I also expect NWA to entertain SKYW for 15-30 planes in order to put pressure on PNCL and Mesaba. My guess is that NWA swallows Mesaba and then kills them with a Bankruptcy write-off, then continues with Compass.
Just have to wait and see. . . .
