Hilarious. You don't like the B6/NK merger because you ran numbers and know you'll lose significant relative seniority and that makes you sad. Don't make it about some deep dive DD and analysis you did on the airline industry and everyone's part in it. NK product disappears and transforms into B6 so there's not square peg and round hole. Your round hole gets plugged by the peg and your product disappears.
Stop with the sanctimony and just admit you don't want B6 because of how your personal situation most likely plays out in it.

I know what F9 is and I still prefer them to B6. Not that your product is bad, just not my idea of a sound business model in the current environment.
B6/NK wouldn’t be good for either airline, like trying to put a square peg in a round hole.
Tell me again about “JetBlue Effect”. I’ll change my avatar to a picture of a clown if you can do it.
but you won’t cause posting a link is backbreaking work.

Not stealing, ALPA policy dictates how this will play out. We're just along for the ride. At least you finally admitted (inadvertently or subconsciously) the real reason you'd rather merge with F9. I have no problem with your reasoning. I get it. Just be honest and stop acting like it's better for society. It's not. It's just better for you. Don't worry, sport. You can sling my gear any time. I'll even buy the first round. Top shelf, just for you.

Oh, and thank you for having a revolving door at the bottom of your seniority list. Thanks for spending the $$$ on new hire FOs who leave shortly after. They'll be slinging my gear down the road. Quality training paid for by you. You enjoy that top shelf, my friend.

I actually don't work for F9, NK, or B6.
