U.S. government, two airlines say open to settling merger fight

[dollacrackho]

If we give up that many slots who is the beneficiary and how do you decide it. I know Barger has been creaming his shorts about all the dc gates.

Guess we can put this rumor to rest. FALSE

I kinda hope it's not true . That's too much to give up in dc. We need all the advantages of this merger to make it work long term.

Why doesn't the judge just tell the DOJ that they will have to wait until the fares actually do skyrocket before bringing a case? Then if they want to strip US of slots they can go for it, Sword of Damocles' - style.

Sort of like since the case is not "ripe" yet - how can u collect damages until damaged.

Good play on words there Bird

Punch your card for yet another thing you don't understand. Two more and you make it an even million and you get a free coffee and donut. And we all know you LOA93 guys need all the free stuff you can get.

DOJ will give info to judge from previous mergers. Delta/NW merger info was the first.

You're about 0 for 5 on your inside information.

The thing is nobody knows what will happen. We can find things that make us feel better but none of us know what the judge thinks or what the strategy for both pairs will be in court. Either way we'll all know in a few months and it will be final. Until then we can speculate and argue till we are red in the face but there isn't anyone more credible than the other and its just wasted energy.
