That seems to be how corporate USA works to get ahead these days. Still, this increased 'leverage' could lead to good things in other ways so let's see what happens!

The best way to create monopoly- Mergers. One of the largest countries in the world and only 3 major carriers in the entire country.

3 legacy carriers but plenty of other airlines. Southwest, spirit, Alaska, frontier, virgin, allegiant, JetBlue, etc, etc...
No shortage of capacity.
