Hey guys, I must apologize for something I wrote above. The last part, "JB removed as a competitor would greatly help SWA". My wife read this and asked if I was being mean, I said no, she said re-read it and put SWA in place of JB. I did and did see her point. Sorry guys, that could have been taken as a very ugly and negative comment. I should have said if SWA and JB were to merge it would greatly help SWA and the Blue. Sorry again for the way I wrote it, did not mean to offend anyone. Just trying to pass on some rumors that we are starting to hear that also concern our pilots groups as well as our co's if a merger was to happen. More than likely the merger thing would be for a while until we settle down a bit after the AT purchase. I will say SWA's upper-upper management team is extremely happy with the results they got from the AT, and they seem to be ichin to another. Alaska has been the top dog on the rumor list but it may turn out to be a rather expensive one to do. Let's not forget when SWA was wanting to buy Frontier? A couple small airlines would be easier than a larger one. SWA is wanting to grow and grow fast to keep up with the big boys...
