June Bid right now opens a SFO 737 base in November. I think there is still a 40% chance that this never happens… lots of whispering. This place is such a disaster right now nothing would surprise me. Everyone, is just positioning and trying to justify their job. All the movers and shakers are trying to come up with the golden ticket that gets the company out of this mess.

If our company wasn’t so delusional, we would have announced JetBlue by now… Kinda feels like something bigger is in the works. Just what I have seen of late, my money is all on United, laugh away. I have heard BM wants to go it alone, if we fail, we quietly fold into AAL in 7-10 years. I don’t think he is going to have much more say then one board vote though, pretty sure he is about to get flushed.

I doubt it would last that long at the rate things are going. AA might want it just to dilute their retirement problem, but trustbusters.
Based on my previous experience in big organizations, yeah you can hear the scurrying and smell the fear emanating from the headshed.

OK, so we have pretty much all bases covered? B6, SWA, HAL, UAL, SY so far, did I miss any?
AA on the list now too?

HAL failed in December, SWA in February, JetBlue probably still has some legs… but not with an about face by AS. UAL is outrageous and a guess, but what I have seen… seems very likely. Independent is what BM wants, his backstop is AAL and OneWorld. I have never said SY or heard any real SY rumblings since 2015. I think it is UAL. JetBlue still has a chance if UAL doesn’t move. SWA and HAL are dead.
