Here is what I've been hearing over the past week or so... Take it FWIW...
-Delta is desperate to get rid of 50 seat aircraft.
-ASA to be renamed Atlantic Southeast (drop the Airlines).
-ASA/SkyWest starting a branded operation.
-Negotiations for a sale of Compass.
-DL wants to get rid of the flow-through agreement.
-Comair is part of negotiations for a sale/merger/etc.
I think a lot of questions will be answered at the end of next week.
