Oh, and that's Financial Times, not FlyerTalk. Gotta be specific about which FT!

It'd make for an interesting merger, but I'm not sure whether it'd make sense to have hubs at ATL and MEM and CVG and DTW. Salt Lake would be a nice addition since NW really has nothing in the southwest. But CO's EWR and IAH hubs (and their routes in Latin America, Polynesia and TATL) would be a much more desirable mix IMHO.
