its a false assumption to think that consolidation will mean more pricing power. It will likely mean just the opposite. If consolidation happens and the merged airlines pull back some capacity, you just open the door for new entrants to add that capacity right back. Then instead of competing with another major who has similar costs you are competing with a start up with rock bottom costs.
I hope this means gates for SWA in ATL....in the next couple of years.:beer:
