It is 99.99% guaranteed that DOJ will file suit against the merger. What isn’t fully known is if that is just designed to extract concessions (divesting in certain bases, giving up the NEA, etc) or if the DOJ is actually hell-bent on destroying the merger.

This administration has a habit of making bad decisions. I expect to see more hurdles. Ultimately, I believe it’ll pass. It’ll just take time.

How is the merger good for the consumer? Not speculation but how does eliminating a product and replacing it with a more expensive one, benefit the consumer. Hey I hate big government too but your disappointment with the employer you chose, is probably pretty low on their list of stuff to fix.

Spirit competes with Greyhound and driving, not legacies. JB/Spirit as a combined company will be able to directly compete in markets against legacies. That's the theory, anyways.
