OMG!

Finally one of my airline stock plays payed off... 500 shares AAI

 

[Whaler]

Wow is right.
That's about all there is to say.

Date of Hire

I'm sure the SWA guys will offer DOH to the Tranny folks:smash:

 

[Headfake14]

well...either way you slice it, it'll be a wicked pay increase for them. I imagine the 717 will be phased out.

 

[Headfake14]

Ha...yea. A LOT of early morning "guess what" phone calls going out to the brass.

I'm wondering what our guys in Forrest Hills will make of it.

 

[JA'd]

I am sure the other bidders will come out.

Now SWA will be going after yet another stronghold of USAir.

They attack them in Phoenix, Vegas, Philly.

The next battle will be CLT.

Look for a merger announcement for USAir soon to follow.
