So the merger made this new "entity" 5th largest airline in the U.S. after AA, Delta, United, JetBlue, Southwest. I guess it is considered an achievement for some.

Wouldn't that make it 6th?

Real programmers count from zero.

Oh I didn't put that list in any order :) I am not sure if JetBlue is bigger than SW or vice versa.

I meant you listed five airlines bigger than Virgin/Alaskan, which would make it 6th.
