USAirways/American Rumor

[JAB31]

Big "announcement" in Oct? I keep hearing this but nothing concrete...any ideas what it may be?

Both will declare BK!

USAirways is being parted out, most of it will be gone. Parts of PHL and DCA will survive, probably the shuttle, maybe PHX- the rest will be flushed.

Why flush the portions that make money and keep the one that loses the cash. Phoenix is one of the highest impacted regions of the economy following the housing collapse.................

Southwest Airlines doesn't agree.

I worked for both, take them both outside and shoot them, we'd all be better off!

Ah, yes, that East-originating-wishful-thinking-merger rumor again. Bor-ring.

I wonder who's going to "hear" this rumor again next week and post it here?

Can't be anything good otherwise they wouldn't be making any annoucements.

AA will be downsizing to its current fleet of super 80's only. All other fleet types will be returned or sold. Eagle will be combined into mainline. USAirways will be be downsizing its entire fleet as well and will keep only 762's. They will code-share with AA on international segments, while keeping Piedmont as the only express carrier.

 

[ultrarunner]

Someone is going to take USAir out back and shoot it and AA will bury the carcass.

Anyway you slice it, a good thing!
