AirTran and Alaska?

[tico]

Alaska is a proud company with roots that date back many years.

Airtran's roots date back to Valuejet.

Nuff said on this one.

Airtran/ValuJet put one in the swamp. Totally preventable. Alaska put one in the pacific ocean. Totally preventable. Nuff said on this one

The funny thing is that he commutes on us out of ATL.

Really? Care to disclose an identity in PM, and maybe he won't commute on us for too much longer?

Hi!

Merger:
It sure looks to me like SWA is looking at AirTran, as their 1st choice to merge.

ValuJet Crash:
The ValuJet crash was caused by hazmat, that was not shipped properly. We study that one every year.

It WAS preventable, but not by ValuJet. At the time, it was only preventable by the company that shipped the oxygen generators.

Because of that accident, the cargo holds have had fire detection/extinguishing protection added, and the hazmat shipping system has been massivly overhauled.

There was nothing that ValuJet or the two pilots could have done that day-God Bless them.

You guys are too predictable and easy when it comes to value jet references.

American put one into a mountain. Totally preventable. United put a few into the ground. Totally preventable. Fact is there is only one airline that has not had an accident, QANTAS.

If you're a 23XXX digit guy then life is pretty good over here, especially with Vegss opening up.

How's Airtran these days?
