How about American being dominated by British Airways and Qantas?
It’s no secret that American’s in a bad way – they’re going to be knocked down from King of the Hill to #3 in short order. They’re out of cash. Their fleet is old. Their route structure needs amping up. They don’t service Oceania anymore. They’re very weak across the Pacific. They’re weak to Europe in comparison to Delta or United’s structure.
What to do? Especially when Lufty snaps up Doug Parker’s little project?
Let someone else drive.
