Richard and I are joined by Seth Miller of paxex.aero and Dots, Lines and Destinations.

We're discussing the government stepping in to block the JetBlue merger with Spirit and the knock-on effects. There's a real possibility an airline files bankruptcy this fall, and the failure of this merger is a contributing factor.

Seth is also weighing in on Alaska and Hawaiian merger, American Airlines new flight to Japan and why United is a bit excited about Guam.
