That much is plausible, more west coast domestic to complement their international (and maybe replace dying regional airlines). Probably going to need a WH administration to the right of Attila the Hun to get the right DOJ.

Any merger rumor was speculation and guesswork. There has definitely been a lot of tire kicking coming out the back end of Covid. From the tea leaves I saw or heard about, my guess is this is what most likely went down with AS. We pursued B6, they ran to grab NK from F9. We talked with HA, UA came and talked to us and got DOJ’d. WN stoped by poked around, BOD made a bankruptcy bid for AS. AS is still patiently waiting to hear back on something civil with HA. I don’t know if it’s exact, but I think it’s really really close😉 The new chatter begins to suggest that maybe HA has become agreeable to a deal.
I heard from the right place, SK has said if the DOJ would ever lighten up, he would scoop AS up in a heartbeat.

March 2016, CEO Cush came into our recurrent ground school and was asked about mergers and said nothing of the sort. 3 weeks later, Alaska bought VX Apr 4, 2016. And as it turned out in SEC filings, the merger game had started late 2015.

does anyone actually think any upper management in the know on future mergers would open their mouth to a line pilot or a retired pilot to share what's going on? There are ndas involved in that kind of thing. Those who know, don't talk; and those who talk, don't know.

they do that at the end of almost every position bid when they are about to launch another, they’ll add those vaccines back in the next bid. Why they do that I don’t know. seems like so much work. But then again we still sort position bids by hand instead of using software
