….at the request of the Spirit’s board which seems like it’s going to be NK/JB going forward.

I would agree. No other reason.

and that’s a bingo. I’m not a political fan of Chuck but if JetBlue wants something he is there.

An economic downturn on the horizon, massive integration costs, a bloated offer... It's clear why JetBlue wants Spirit, it's to stop a frontier merger.

I fully expect the work groups to get screwed when they decide to use spirit as a fleet replacement, rather than growth.

I don't get how anyone at any of the 3 airlines involved can support a NK B6 merger.
