"AMR wants to increase revenue by 1 billion, switch all energy use to clean alternative power, end world hunger, create world peace and get every man woman and child a pony." That is what I would "want" to do as CEO of AMR, vote for me.
Exactly. My question is where internationally they think they can wrangle even a billion in revenue increase.

-Europe in the toilet...
-South America? They already own that, so I doubt if they can get enough of an increase to make up for Europe..
-Zero presence in Africa.. (come on in boys... the water's fine. oh, and UAL is pulling out of some of those markets...)..
-Asia? I think their relationship with JAL would put the clamps on that..
-Antarctica?
