The Biden administration is suing to block JetBlue Airways from buying Spirit Airlines, saying the deal would reduce competition and drive up air fares for consumers. FOX13

Jet Blue pilots will get 21.5% raises over the next year and a half as part of a two-year contract extension.of Spirit Airlines, saying Tuesday that the deal would reduce competition and drive up air fares for consumers.

"If allowed to proceed, this merger will limit choices and drive up ticket prices for passengers across the country" and "eliminate Spirit's unique and disruptive role in the industry," he said. New York, Massachusetts and the District of Columbia joined the lawsuit. JetBlue and Spirit vowed to continue fighting to salvage their agreement.

The lawsuit is the latest by the Biden administration to seek to block mergers in industries including video gaming, publishing and sugar refining. JetBlue and Spirit together would control a little over 9% of the domestic air-travel market, far smaller than American, Delta, United and Southwest. JetBlue executives repeatedly said their deal was not like Pepsi buying Coca-Cola — a line that Hayes repeated Tuesday.

i don’t know of a single person that flies either of these airlines, not sure how combing them would create any lack of competition when they weren’t in the discussion to begin with

The Government suing anyone for driving up prices is absolutely hypocritical.

Sure doesnt care about everything else being driven up..

A good airline buying a bad airline is always a good thing…

It's like salishan buying spanaway.
