Obviously, none of us on these entertainment forums are in the know even though a few claim to be so. I know, the clock is yada yada yada……..I’m bored so I’ll play. I can’t see Eskimo marrying HAL. What does HAL bring to the table? SWA is pouncing on them in their own turf. Their Asia routes are trumped by Asian airlines with superior service and product. I’ve flown on HAL a few times and I was not impressed with their product. The only thing going for them is their lower fare. Even Hawaiians don’t aupport their home airline. HAL doesn’t posses a solid balance sheet. When the economic pendulum swings, HAL will be back in the same predicament-going nowhere. So, BM and his team are going to apply Angle Lake’s special sauce and miraculously revive this zombie? I think selling is a better than buying another dead end airline just to remain being the boss. Maybe it’s time to cash out and set aside their ego. How well did the VX purchase workout for the Eskimo again?
