you guys are insane if you think the DOJ is going to sue to try and block an F9/NK Merger.

He made a bad decision based on idealistic fairy tale land where everyone gets what they want and money isn’t a reality.
I think if he were to see it today, he would realize maybe NK isn’t as financially strong as he, the Feds, and Ted made it out to be.
People forget that Ted went very easy on the “flailing firm” argument, where he should have made the case that without the merger, NK is going to fail.

This will keep getting lost in the noise...... JetBlue didn't want to take on Spirit at the agreed price point. It is my firm belief JetBlue used the court room to find a off ramp from the merger... That they found…

Yeah dropping the appeal a week later after the judge left the door wide open in his summary was a bit telling.

I think frontier is gonna have some competition now!
if Harris would’ve won, the only thing this administration would allow another Frontier merger.
in January with a Republican DOJ and DOT coming into office, they are going to be really soft on antitrust. I think they would approve just about anything.
frontier might have to pony up some money if they want to secure NK.
I am on my way out of here so I don’t have a dog in this fight if you think I’m being biased.
