Alaska & Hawaiian Airlines Overlapping Routes Would Result In 2-To-1 Reduction In Supply

The Alaska-Hawaiian Airlines merger still awaits some regulatory approvals.

A group of passengers attempted to sue the carriers due to fears that a merger would lessen competition.

The merger still has to be approved by Spirit AeroSystems’ shareholders and regulators, including the FTC and DOJ.

The airline will merge with another Indian full-service carrier called Vistara.

Once merged, the carrier will become Indias largest international airline.

Operating under combined ownership will allow the carriers to optimize aircraft usage and expand their domestic and international networks.

The European Commission has finally approved the ITA-Lufthansa deal following months of investigation.

It comes after the carrier reportedly said in February that it was seeking to refinance.

The DOJ started reviewing the Alaska and Hawaiian merger in February 2024.

A merger will bring together two great loyalty programs – as part of oneworld.
