The possibility of AA/DL/UA doing another round of mergers isn't actually off the table. It is something that HAS been discussed. But I think that's all its been is just discussion. Even if you put aside the legality of such merger(s). Currently more interested in the merger (or lack thereof) of VX/...
Jump to postConsidering we still have some work left in our merger. These are positive numbers!!! Especially when compared to another "Big 3" that lost many quarters in a row and has yet to fully merge.
Jump to postI know I've been late to the party but my computer's been on the blink, I've been lurking lately. Twice I've been out at Liberty Station and got to see the BA 744 takeoff. One of those times the BA 744 tookoff Late at 1:15am! I don't know how much of a fine they paid after curfew. I have really bee...
Jump to postcurrently its based on the tail number. IF that thing becomes POTUS, then it's standard terminology. He will have to cease his title and position from his companies and would not be allowd to travel on his own jets. bummer....
Jump to postsomething doesn't add up. they released your seat knowing full well you were connecting? And, as you said, were waiting. Sounds like the (gate operation) knew of your incoming arrival and still decided to drop your seat. My question is- who took it, and put YOU back in it. If the person replacing yo...
Jump to postAA is developing this product, too. It's in its infant stages so I don't know more than that... The biggest hurdle is getting airports where common use systems are (practically all line stations) many airports are very hesitant to allow the install. Or, don't have the infrastructure to support it :(...
Jump to postI would be STUNNED if we launched ORD-AMS. Our focus is Asia/Pacific and there IS going to be more expansion. Expect BNE. I mean, we only have been training people there (not just for diversionary reasons). DEL or BOM is also on the map and is way more likely than AMS. Just because we are training o...
Jump to postdefinitely an improvement from the current product both CO and UA models.
Jump to postNo. this is clearly a moron who felt he is more important than the people who play by the rules... This guy doesnt know who is above him on the list or how a WR works.
Definitely NOT a news story
I would be more interested to see how the subsequent days go. A one off could be just that.. But, continuous gate issues would be sabotage.
This will be interesting to watch for sure!
awesome experience!!!! I wish I had BBC to watch! I love watching the LHR shows, such as the old favorite, "AIRPORT".

Jump to postI don't get why we are all getting so upset over this route ending. In my 3 years back at <acronym title="Continental Airlines (USA)">CO</acronym>/UA that route was not full. I'm sure cargo was. As with everyone here, we're always sad to see a route go regardless of aircraft or city pairs. I am, how...
Jump to postYea, he is NOT going anywhere soon. Considering he's leading a company thru a merger and all the technicalities involved with it, he's done an amazing job.
So the stock isn't at $40/share right now, but he's not worried. He's fully vested in AA.
Let's not go down the rabbit hole- again... Bethune was an inspiration and trustworthy leader then <acronym title="Continental Airlines (USA)">CO</acronym> needed... Sadly, Smisek was not CEO material. Anyone who says he's a good leader is mistaken. we all (hopefully) agree on that. UAL seems to be ...
Jump to postread-the-contract..... or they'll be in the same boat they are now. But we all know they won't. It's time off and pay they look at. that's it.

Jump to postDefinitely poor planning. If there are so many pilot shortages, how come there are countless pilots without work?
Jump to postwhere is the video?? There is always video of everything in our world now.... surprised it hasn't been posted yet.
Jump to postthat's what I am thinking. They did ask the question of "what other routes can we see" and there was NO talk of downsizing Asia/pacific, cutting <acronym title="Tokyo - Narita International (New Tokyo) (NRT / RJAA), Japan">NRT</acronym>. It was all focused around building a base and growing from the...

Jump to postBA goes to daily 744 on March 27.. Keep that in mind for plane spotting purposes.. All rumors of the 773 or 787 or double daily.. false. Will remain at gate 20.
Jump to postI have no idea if they were fired... I do know they are on a leave pending investigation. What most fail to agree to is the <acronym title="Safair (South Africa)">FA</acronym>'s still continued to refuse to do their job after a full inspection deemed it safe and ok to go. They also acted out, disobe...

Jump to postIt's hilarious to step back and read the comments made so far, and what people think... For one, people want the "free food" and "free stuff"... HOWEVER, they hate the food! They complain about it. So, why give it if you're just gonna cry like a little kid? And, it seems like everyone is allergic or...

Jump to postdoes anyone know when this announcement will come? said next week. But... when?
Jump to postI can't wait to see it used. It'll really put the other US Carriers to shame in terms of product offerings.
Expect more great announcements to come, soon.

Jump to postI had a hard time keeping this one quiet! So glad it's officially announced.
Jump to postI doubt they'd start that service. Just because the capability exists and a certain market does. doesn't mean UAL will.. I couldn't imagine being in a UAL plane for that long. especially with that senior of people working it. yikes...
Jump to postnice. Not sure why people care what color the seats are... you can't even tell when you're sitting in them. I'd not even care if the seat was hot pink with neon green if it was comfortable. Dark colors also help with stains and scuffs a lot better than lighter colors. #passengershaming certainly pro...
