AMR to make a hostile offer for LCC at $9.50 a share

It should become public during the earnings announcement tomorrow... or I could be full of it.

 

[aa73]

I vote for "full of it."

Disclaimer: I could be full of it, though.

Ha! Could you imagine the cluster**** that would be the seniority list negotiations? And you think the east/west issue is bad.

Besides AMR has no ability to raise the capital nor should they be spending any cash... They'll report a loss...the only one among their peers...

 

[Tweaker]

What xander said. I have no idea how they can be buying 200-300 airframes (oh yea they are playing Boeing against Airbus(.gov gift recipients) each other masterfully).

I fail to conceive that AMR is buying a damned thing.

BS flag thrown

Ask Holly.

She's right on top of things lately.

Gup

AA's 30-year-old MD-80's combined with US's 70-year-old flight attendants. It'll be awesome!

I'm gonna get schwacked for this...what is LCC? Where is the link on this??

 

[Beetle007]

LCC is U.S. Airways. They changed their symbol to LCC (low cost carrier) after they emerged from bankruptcy and issued new stock. Their old stock became worthless and the average investor lost all their money.

U.S. Airways market value is 1.13 billion and American has a market value is 1.64 billion.

In comparison, Spirit Airlines with only 35 airplanes has a market value of 1.01 billion. Southwest Airlines has a market value of 7.91 billion.

AMR is going to merge DOH. AMR Has always wanted USAir EAST. They will buy the east and jettison the west. Have fun at Republic. BB will treat you well a long with your Frontire brothers.

I value this web site for the entertainment it provides.

Is it only us regional guys that have to take drug tests?

Hey Teenie Weenie guys! Hey Reno Air guys! Did you hear that AMR integrates seniority by DOH?

Oh, wait a tic....


For the sake of my friends at BOTH carriers, I'm thinking this is just the usual BS rumour-du-jour.

 

[xkuzme1]

They might bet a load of cash for selling Eagle.

 

[macdu]

During a 20 July earnings call to discuss the historical narrowbody order, American President Tom Horton stressed the financing requires minimal to no capital expenditure since the aircraft are being financed through operating leases.

That will free up some money

AMR Has always wanted USAir EAST.

I don't think anyone wants to be involved in your self made disaster.

Parker has got to be laughing all the way to the bank with your continued self imposed horrendous pay rates!

 

[johnsonrod]

Is this post a wind-up or has there actually been a bid for USAirways? Sometimes I can't tell on these boards... True or false?

If it is false, can we ban the guy who started the false rumor?????

If AA has always wanted the east, why was it AWA that picked you up?

 

[Tomct]

Because St. Nic is still living with the dream of DOH on their list....NOT GOING TO HAPPEN!!
