Comair execs in MSP, merger with Compass
I just heard a rumor that Comair execs were in MSP either today or yesterday discussing a potential merger with Compass. Has anyone heard anything about this?

It might be more effecient in the long run to put the wholly-owned units under one roof. But there are some downsides...
-Different airplanes means minimal savings on overhead.
-Loss of whipsaw.

That mean nothing trust me! CVG is downsizing drastically after this merger is through.(Hints why concourse C is closing) They very well may move the HQ to Eagan. With that said I have only heard the W/O will be run by a holding company.

That is almost as funny as a real merger. Just think about it for a second. One, since when did Comair get a managment team. Two, why would Compass or NWA/DAL-seeing that they are calling the shots, even want Comair. What do they have to offer. And three, well there is no three, there doesn't even need to be a one or a two for that matter. It will never happen.

In that case, it'd be a matter of public record and all over the financial news sites. I call BS.
