Check out this NY Times discussion on who really benefits when airlines merge.

It features analysis by:

  • Patrick Smith, commercial airline pilot
  • Brett Snyder, crankyflier.com
  • Holly Hegeman, PlaneBusiness.com
  • Scott Sonenshein, Rice University
  • Pablo T. Spiller, economist, U.C. Berkeley
