Late news out this afternoon has United’s Glenn Tilton and US Airways’ Doug Parker now scheduled to “talk” tomorrow. Where is that Star Trek miniaturization device when we need it, so we could all be the proverbial flies on the wall?
Not surprising that the deal is not officially “dead.” It does seem there has been a lot of “posturing” in the press with this one, so I have made it a point to take whatever is “reported” with a heavy grain of salt, as I mentioned earlier. (Makes that turkey taste better as well.)
The latest scoop has United still considering the more “traditional” merger agreement with US Airways, or a more marketing/alliance type of agreement with Continental Airlines. So nothing has changed on that front.
