Sounds like a merger made in heaven for US!

Whoever doesn't have a large east coast shuttle operation and whoever wants a 190 operation that has all the bugs worked out of it. That could be an airline like United or possibly a new airline named Compass. Even if you are a JetBlue hater, you have to admit the airline has a very high value with all the JFK slots and gates and the lucrative east coast shuttle.

Sounds like just a little overlap for US Air, actually, there is too much aircraft similarity (airbus) for Parker to be interested. Wonder if the DAL deal doesn't go through if he could get JB for the $8.? Billion offer.
 
I have heard a few JB friends and other accurate rumor types say that AMR is interested in JB's fleet. The Buses will make a nice start in replacing the Super 80 and the Embraer is just what the Doc ordered.

AMR will eliminate a LCC competitor and JB is Non-union making stapling a forgone conclucion. The APA has already said OK.

You are very, very bad! You will be punished in the afterlife... ;) :D TC

Lucrative east coast shuttle now that's worth a hardy laugh. At the breath taking fares JB charges I'm sure it's putting the squeeze on the Fung Wah bus service from Chinatown. A major revenue machine :rolleyes:
