Well as per Gordan Bethune, he told the Star Ledger that Continental should be in the drivers seat if the merger goes through. B)

Gordon just wants a merger so he can get paid,plus a whole new bevy of stews to get busy with

As for the new name if CO hooks up with United:


Pan Am

 

[IORFA]

Not for nothing, but United's HDQ is now in Chicago. Not Elk Grove Village anymore.

NHBB,

Just saw a report put together yesterday containing the percentages and results of the proposed of and some that have not been proposed mergers. If UA/CO were to merge the only dominate are of ops they would have is the pacific. UA/CO would not have the largest Trans Atlantic or Latin American or domestic percentages. The holder of those titles would STILL be AA. The chances of AA getting any governmental approval for a CO acquisition is remote. Also what on earth does CO bring to AA that they don't already have? Isn't IAH/DFW and EWR/JFK some huge overlap? What would AA do? Move the EWR and IAH ops to maybe, BNA, RDU or even SJC?

I just have a difficult time seeing any value of a AA/CO deal. Now AA/NW would make more sense but that does not look likely if you believe the news reports. Maybe the best bet for AA is to sit this round out, let the dust settle and see who actual can prove some merger synergy. My bet that some of these marriages will not come without some transition problems resulting in opportunities for some of the other carriers in the next 3-5 years.

A combination of CO and AA would give the combined airline four daily China frequencies, CO's HKG rights plus fairly good NRT strength.

It would strengthen the stranglehold on Central America and Texas, where both are already strong. That overlap would permit some rationalization (maybe resulting in higher fares).

Oh, that and a fairly strong presence in NYC, no matter which side of the Hudson you prefer.

I dunno if AA should pursue CO, but it wouldn't be the worst acquisition.

If UA combines with CO, it might have to divest some China frequencies due to its already-dominant position. Same for some Japan slots. It would give UA a strong Texas beachhead.

"Magsau",

I know that it will be of NO surprise to you, that I have SALIVATED over the prospect of AA/NW for years !

With That said, in the end, I and other AA "followers", believe like you, that AA will lie quietly in "the weeds", and will STRIKE at THE most oppertune time.(Think MALE LION in African desert)
Also, just Today, Australia FINALLY reached Open Skies with the USA. So(know) the whole world is available to AA(if in fact they want it).
With the advent of the 777-200LR, ANYWHERE(now) is possible !

On a personal note,...I don't know HOW in HEL* you UAers put up with TILTON trying to DECIMATE a GREAT airline. I'd of figured by now, someone would have "taken a shot" at him

THE airline(UA) with the BEST world wide REACH, should NOT have to endure an A$$ hole like GT !

Though "donttouchthebeauty" will never believe me, I wish UAers good luck always !!

See ya !

Dogg seriously, stop smokin, smelling, inhailing or stop doing what you are doing for your own health :cold: . I just hope you don't fly a plane.
