I wish Express Jet all the best, and they in my book are a world class operation. Hope it works out for you, or maybe they could combine with Eagle to become Megaopolis Regional Airline feeder man, with ambitions to take over the moon - the moon!!!!! LOL

But seriously, could an Express Jet Eagle merger be a reality? Similiar fleets, etc. I think in 2008 there is going to be alot of bloodletting, record high fuel prices, a reccession, its' gonna be rough. maybe size in this instance may be of some help, then again I always wondered why airlines won't buy an oil refinery and set their own prices. Just a thought.
