Anybody got any popcorn?

What is it with JetBlue buying xxx or xxx merging with JB threads lately?!

 

[CapnVegetto]

Riiiight. Believe it when you see it.

Can't wait to see how many people jump on this one as though it is remotely true based on the knowledge of some guy just saying it is going to happen with no proof/article or anything. Let the irrational emotions fly. Ready set go.......

JB would NEVER buy Eagle. Buying Eagle = getting a union on property, something management is STAUNCHLY against. We just voted on a bunch of stuff that says they HAVE to integrate seniority lists if they buy anybody that flies aircraft 50 seats or more. Do you honestly think that JB managment wants to deal with that can of worms? For a bunch of 50 seaters that they don't have the routes or gates for? No friggin way.

JB is going to merge at some point, or get bought at some point. If anything, Eagle will buy JB under AMR's backroom direction. Of course, that can't happen once Iggle is divested, and even then, where are they going to come up with close to $3 billion bucks they would need in order to get the BOD to accept a buyout? Rumor is they've turned down more than that from WN. And if Iggle bought JB, what the hell would the do with them?

Ridunkulous, dude.

I just got hired at JB after 7yrs at Eagle.

The biggest hole with this rumor is someone tell me one good reason why JB needs/wants to buy Eagle. Hint- There isnt anything Eagle brings to the table that jetblue cant do. End of thread.

I thought the same thing about SWA and Airtran.

You thought wrong bro. SWA had Atlanta to gain, as well as a certificate that had Carribbean ops on it. Tranny was a good buy for SWA. It greatly expanded their network and entrenched them into a market where they had a huge hole.

SWA purchasing JB would make a lot of sense, too. It would get them into the NYC market, where they have virtually zero presence. That wouldn't surprise me at all, once the AT purchase is completed.

JetBlue does not have the money to purchase Eagle...The money set aside for the purchase will now be used for fines, passenger pay offs, and a new ad campaign to help re-establish the companies name.

Research Frank Lorenzo, Michael Milken, and Doug Parker, you don't need any of your own money to buy an airline, just financing junk bonds and dumb workers willing to work substandard wages to pay the interest nut on the junk bonds.

Watching you self destruct is too much fun. Why leave? Have you figured out all you've got is a New York Air template for "culture" in lieu of pay and compensation? Run by a gay emotional manager! There's something to be proud of. Tell that story to these fools with applications in here.

Doubt he/she/it works here.

Keep doubting, I'll be flying with you soon. You've been sold a bill of goods by clever pitch men, I'll be the one telling you the truth.

Be sure to identify yourself by name so I can point and laugh.
