UAL has a sugardaddy that is ready to invest $2.5B if they can get further cost reductions and show viability. Tilton apparently screwed up a golden opportunity to renegotiate plane leases a few years ago, and now those same leasors may get quite a few planes back. I still look at UAL/AMR as one eventually. If the leasors grab a bunch of domestic a/c, this will make it even more attractive for the investor to try and fund a merger between the two. AMR would love their international route network.
