Default Southwest is looking to buy an all Airbus

Maybe just maybe for
58 dollars per share on an all stock swap

Your thoughts ?

What regulator would even contemplate allowing this type of merger between 2 of the remaining low cost carriers after recent consolidation (Alaska and Virgin America)? Not likely.

An incompetent one...which means it’s likely.

Possibly the same one that approved Delta’s joint venture with Korean Air (in addition to the other JVs they enjoy with other partners). Delta also holds stakes in several of their international partners. I don’t think this is a good thing for consumers in terms of choice and fares, but the government didn’t oppose their most recent JV application. Delta is already the world’s largest airline by revenue and third largest (behind UA and AA) in available seat miles.

Guess nobody has told Miramar yet since they’re moving forward with the new HQ.
