Jet Blue Merger???

[Fubijaakr]

Given the choice between an Airbus and nothing, you'd fly it. Get over it.

I didn't mean I wouldn't fly it. Alaska is committed to a single fleet type and that type is the 737. Unless B6 becomes a fire sale, Alaska won't buy you.

 

[Erlanger]

Delta is going to buy JetBlue and Alaska.

 

[BornAgainPagan]

You sound like a real bad ass.

You sound like a real smart guy.

 

[RiddleEagle18]

Alaska doesn't want the Airbus. Forget Alaska.

No one mentioned a jetblue and alaska merger. He said the jetblue merger rumor thread is a close contender to the "whos buying alaska thread."

See below....

JEEZ....... I wish we would get bought by either AA, Alaska, Delta........

Thus my comment, "Alaska won't buy B6."

Delta is going to buy JetBlue and Alaska.

Now that is a definite possibility.

DL/Alaska
AA/JB/VX
UA/CO/Spirit
SWA/USAir/Frontier (hahahahaha!)

In a merger situation, what exactly are the "Merger & Acquisition" provisions for a non-union carrier?

I think it is:

1. Bend over
2. Grab your ankles
and
3. Kiss your sweet A$$ goodby
or
4. (Wait For) Say Hello to My Little Friend!

Three and four are interchangeable

Wow... A zinger.

Bond/McCaskill says Allegheny/Mohawk.

"Riddle runaround"

JetBlue just signed an interline with TAM. The AA rumors have been going on for a while, especially after the interline with AA was signed.

E-Riddle is over- rated. No girls and all bro's. Pure sausage festival with the "sloty's" running around thinking that they are bad $ss with there zummi unis on. . About 10 of us left that hole for major play at real universities. What a joke!!

 

[MADDOGHEAVY]

Last time I checked.... Jetblue has a bigger market cap than American.... Who has the financing now????

 

[Fubijaakr]

I'd say its more likely B6 would buy AA than vice versa.

 

[CapnVegetto]

A JB merger or acquisition is just a matter of time. Nothing more. Who is involved and how is anybody's guess, but it WILL happen.

 

[Fubijaakr]

They've been saying that about an AS merger for 25 years.

AS didn't have JFK slots and gates that everybody in the industry would give their left nut for.

 

[Oh-ryan]

All this extraneous chatter on an emergency frequency? I'm no "guard cop", but I would have keyed they mic every time someone spoke to block the chit chat, then give a reminder that there are frequencies for pilot chit chat.

Thanks Niedermeyer.

You're just as bad with that garbage. At least if I needed to bust in on guard to annouce an emergency I could even if there are knuckleheads treating it like an 80's partyline. I won't be able to do that if you are stomping on everyone with dead silence.

Plus, don't you realize you are jeopardizing national security? Everyone knows guard is USAF common working freq.

 

[Fubijaakr]

That's true. However, we do have a fully developed West Coast system that fits nicely into either AA or DAL's system.

That said, even though there are continual merger rumors, nothing has happened.

 

[SSDD]

You do know what AA and DL have done to the fully developed west coast airlines they've bought in the past, don't you?

 

[Fubijaakr]

I know. That's why neither of them have viable organic West Coast systems. And it's why we have heavy codes ares with both of them.
