RUMOR: Continental to buy Hawaiian

Continental to buy Hawaiian

Anyone else hear about this?

99% of line rumors like this do not play out.

How about using the word "rumor" in your subject line, instead of stating it as fact?

Ty Webb is Grumpy - Rumor

Just kiddin Ty! Drives ya nuts when you see something posted like CO buyin' HAL or another merger back on. Gets your hopes up doesn't it?

Alas, I too, have heard versions of that rumor including CO is going to buy AQ, HAL, AQ+HAL, and don't forget the super merger theory...Alaska, Aloha, Fronteir, and Hawaiian all teamed up to take on the world....

[Freight Dog]

How about Alohawaskatier

AirTran to merge with ATA . . . no, wait, make that AWA . . . no, Frontier! Buying Spirit? How about Midex?

AAARRRRRGGGHHHHH! It's a Charlie Brown Merger. . . . .

I myself hope that we (AirTran) don't merge with anyone, simply because I'd rather do without all of the indigestion that goes with it.
