he’s debating the semantics of an acquisition vs a merger and how that would affect integration not whether or not the seniority lists would be merged. More how lists would be merged based upon what the transaction of the companies is called (acquisition or merger)

Thats how I read it anyway.

Thinking about purchasing some more Spirit stock today since it’s down to about $12.50. Think it’s a smart move?

Thanks for the laugh. Was feeling a bit forlorn today.

Why airline stock? So many better buys out there right now, and ones that pay dividends on top of that.

That ‘MIGHT’ be the case in an arbitrated settlement, but SWA/AirTran was not arbitrated. The conditions of SLI were settled during negotiation, and EACH union membership voted it in by approximately 85% yes to 15% no.

I suspect an industry lesson-learned through this would be to just take it to arbitration.
