With the JB offer on the table, NK shareholders are against the Frontier merger (which would include a reverse Frontier merger). That is why the vote was delayed, it was clear the vote would fail. The shareholders could remove the NK BOD if they tried a maneuver like you describe. In addition, it would be a class action shareholder lawsuit dream...

The shareholders were making their voice heard behind the scenes, which is why the vote was delayed.

What size blue shirt would you like?

No, that is just their stated goal.

What are the odds a B6 merger happens and classes are cancelled for new hires? My class date is August 15th.

Both airlines are needing pilots… I doubt that will happen

Cirium indicates that Delta is Boston's largest airline by flights this June, partly influenced by its growth and also temporary cuts by JetBlue. Indeed, JetBlue was top until last month, as it usually is of course, but its Boston services have been cut by 7% month-on-month.

Not sure how much weight this source has, but that's what i was going by. DAL definitely isn't slowing in Boston

JetBlue merger 60/40

Classes canceled 0% chance

considering that when NWA and DAL merged the NWA new hires who had class dates lost out on their classes, I don’t think it’s a dumb question. Scoreboard, Boomer. Have fun in the SEC.
