Here is the super secret JL plan for airline domination.
He buys Midwest, after a short integration Airtran merges with Frontier. Boeing finances the merger in exchange for replacing the Airbus with 737-1000. By this time Alaska is on the ropes so JL buys them.
The whole purpose is so he can….drum roll……. Rename it all EASTERN.

Easter Revived?
The last pieces of the puzzle were disposed of this year, with the sale of the Eastern name and logo. …..
So can we expect the revival of the Eastern name anytime soon? Yes says Bevans “ It’s definitely going to happen….. More sense to find an airline-not over a certain size-currently operating and work out a transaction to re-brand it…..”
JL hates the Airtran name and he wants to leave his mark (in a good way) on the airline world before he retires.
The new Eastern would be the launch customer for the Next Next Generation 737.
