United CEO 100% Sure A Merger With American Would Get Approved. I'm 99% Sure He's Wrong.

I’m surprised this jackass hasn’t mouthed off about buying the Air Force. He flunked out of AF pilot training.

A combined UA+AA would have 2,150 mainline aircraft. That’s more than double Delta’s size (third-largest fleet). Hubs in SFO, LAX, DEN, PHX, DFW, IAH, ORD, CLT, MIA, IAD/DCA, PHL, EWR/LGA/JFK, with fortress hubs at nearly all of those airports. There’s absolutely no way that would be good for consumers.

Please, just STFU.

Lucky, United’s greatness is its greatness at making such bold comments. The type of merger he wants has about the same chance of successful approval as BA merging with LH or AF. Hah!!!
