And if bookings don't pick up significantly, we may all find out what a much smaller United looks like. With or without a visit to the man in the black dress.
Besides, United is not the most vulnerable US airline right now. There are others with deeper financial problems. One doesn't have to look very hard to find them.
theres a point where they can no longer pay back 20+ billion even running a perfect airline. That means bankruptcy. When you are bankrupt you must get people to buy off on a business plan. Good luck with that.....I wouldn’t say that Airline history is littered by incredible shrinking airlines......it may be litter with their picked over sun bleached bones. Which is what I’m getting at.
