are they the same analysts that said Barak would win in NH?

Analysts are worthless.

 

[Schwanker]

The "golden share" is automatically nullified if NWA merges with anyone.

Source?

I've always heard that too, but not sure where it is written...maybe start with their annual report

Analysts are not subject to random drug testing......

 

[Secret Squirrel]

They are probably using this website as their source.

Of course it's all moot unless the DOJ gives the green light... Analysts have been wrong before too. It should be interesting.

You hit the nail on the head. Any large merger obviously needs DOJ approval - which is quite the hurdle in itself. I know General Lee likes to spew worthless knowledge out of his cakehole - but all of that is fodder unless any DOJ action takes place.

TBD...

Until then G. Lee can continue to think/dream he is impressing everyone with the fact he flies in the right seat of an airplane that absolutely impresses no one (except instructordude of course).

I especially like this FI cottage industry "knowledge" that says "if one merger is allowed, they all must be allowed to be fair!" :laugh:

Yeah right. The DOJ is going to let this country go to 3 legacy airlines because they care about fairness!:laugh:

Airlines can squeal like stuck pigs all they want about how "unfair" it is, and pre-spend hundreds of millions of dollars and put tens of thousands of jobs on the line before its aprooved in an attempt to extort approoval in the future, but no way will every legacy be allowed to merge. Some will be left out in the cold. Like the US government cares if every airline has a "dance partner" what a freaking joke. :laugh:

A bit cocky there Maverick. I am sure he makes more than you do. Don't think CAL won't be immune from this process. You may be flying for CAL/UAL in a year or so... But at least you will have fun flying in Afghanistan to think about...

After a cocky comment like that wouldn't it be ironic if you ended up furloughed because of a merger.

 

[Old School]

you mean the KY Team not SKY Team

Hamilton, Joe, Frank, and Reynolds

imp:​

I got that.

 

[ultrarunner]

The pilots would get 70% pay raises and add to already decent work rules. That isnt going to happen.

Don't be so quick to assume that. I bet if you ask the General, he still has his "United + 1" sticker at the ready.

...you know he does...they still are that cocky...


That sticker campaign still cracks me up, but I'm telling ya, The General prly STILL has that sticker on his bag!
