Biden admin. leaning toward blocking JetBlue-Spirit merger: report

JetBlue Airways Airbus A320-232 takes off from Los Angeles International Airport on July 30, 2022, in Los Angeles.

Joanna Geraghty, JetBlue’s chief operating officer, told Reuters earlier in the week that the airlines are still optimistic they can avoid a lawsuit. "We hope that the Justice Department recognizes that a bigger JetBlue is a great thing for consumers," she said. A Spirit Airlines plane lands at Oakland International Airport on July 28, 2022, in Oakland, California.

JetBlue officials answered questions and gave depositions as the department has continued with its anti-trust review of the merger.

Why? Don’t the Chinese approve? They didn’t offer the big guy 10%? Are airline mergers ripe with: a) systemic racism? b) White supremacy? c) global warming…or did Donald Trump say he supports this merger?
