Anyone else?
As a consumer, there 100% should be (and needs to be) more than two majors.

Is AA underperforming compared to UA and DL? Of course, that's been covered here thoroughly. But any suggestion of reduction to two major airlines should send shivers down the spine of every traveler.

Now I'm certain Scott doesn't read this forum nor does he care what I think but I will say: I'm very impressed with what he has done with United. I'm posting this from a Polaris lounge. But, Scott: get over AA, stop talking about them. Focus on continuing the great improvements you've spearheaded at UA.
