Sounds like it will finally be done, 3-4 years from now.....

That's ok. We'll still have 80% of our domestic fuel covered...and revenue off the rest. How's that JCBA going for your work groups?

Outstanding

Of course Southwest will just buy all the pipelines and charge Delta an inflated flowage fee for shipping.

Delta already owns pipelines, that came trhought the Republic merger from Hughes Air West.

Howard Hughes created his pipelines to bring fuel to his airline in Phoenix and LasVegas.

Last time I checked the name of the Corp was "Red Baron" and was one of several owned corporations listed in the NWA annual reports.

Until it blows up. Then you have a BIG problem not being diversified in the oil industry.

Or until the FAA grounds your entire fleet for whatever.

Delta buys a refinery to help fuel its gas guzzlers, United is buying A/C that guzzle less and may buy a refinery to help fuel them...... I like United's approach better.

Except United will use them as passenger lounges. They're a step up from their current facilities.

" Your opinion is based off of airline people running the refinery."

No.


I never stated or implied that, and historically speaking, that is not what happened either....

Hopefully UAL doesn't buy a refinery in Houston. Southwest will have the Mayor force UAL to give them free fuel.

What do pipelines and Flopgut have in common?
