UAL isn't Dunkin Donuts, it's collapse will mean disaster for many in this country and around the world. I doubt it will come to that especially with oil stabilizing a little. Just like 911 they'll have to cut back on routes and place RJs where needed. As with this deal, I suspect 70+ seaters will probably have more demand for additional flying therefore some of the regional may be out of luck. By the way what's happening with Mesa and UA, I thought UA was looking to terminate Mesa.
