Looks Like Delta Will Be #3 Again...Now Who To Buy?

Alaska is much more valuable to DAL than AA. The SEA/PacNW ops would mean little to AA, but would create a fortress hub opportunity for DAL.

LAX is very fragmented, and AA/AS would help a bit, but wouldnt come close to solving the problem. DL/AS in LAX would control a larger share than AA/AS, meaning more value to DAL.

Richard Anderson cares about Richard Anderson, saying that guy doesn't have an ego? Well, maybe compared to Trump he doesn't :laugh:

Very true.

As good as we are doing financially I would rather stay in third. 1st and 2nd are not looking so good as airlines

Delta is going to buy Alaska and JetBlue eventually. Alaska though for sure.

Hot rumor from the training center at AA. Aeroflot interested in acquisition purchase of AA.

Can't help but think Swayze and the Wolverines would have something to say about that.

Please not Alaska, they're the only airline that's any good to ride on anymore.

I see Delta buying netjets. While most of passenger traffic would be kept separate it would allow for some cross operation traffic, the most important type of course the high rollers.
