Take with grain of salt.

Is Delta Grounding Comair to Take off with American Airlines? - DAL, RJET, LUV, UAL, LCC - Foolish Blogging Network

I noticed an ASA F/O non rev with his roll aboard that had a yellow Delta Crew deadhead bag tag on his bag. It was laminated, so it could not have the flight information written on it.

Are ASA pilots given these tags?

We used to be given them. More recently, we had the exactly same looking tag, with Delta replaced with ASA. Now it's in lime green color.

Any of the homies know what the AA bankruptcy timeline is? I had heard that the end of sept was a milestone and now that has been pushed back to december. I haven't really been tracking it, but for some reason I woke up this morning wondering about it.

On a good day, I awaken with visions of Liz Hurley and wondering where things would have gone if I only had another 15 minutes of sleep. On a bad day, it's Sarah Silverman which still isn't too bad, if she doesn't run off with that damn Matt Damon. Anyway ... So, you wake up thinking about American Airlines?

Great, now I'm going to wake up thinking about American Airlines ... either way it will seem like 15 minutes before someone gets screwed.

Try thinking of Liz and Sarah.

Bar;
I can't explain how my brain works, but yes. Do you know their timeline?

The reason for my question isn't to get into their business, but their timeline largely dictates our timeline and when we will be hearing about various things.

December is the end of exclusivity I think.

Scambo,

American was given an extension to file its reorganization plan until December 28, 2012. In practice, the expedited bankruptcy timeline seems to mean nothing. If management is not successful in getting what they demand, this Judge just issues threats and tosses the parties out to work out what management wants.

Investors are calling for a stock pump & dump, (aka our merger). American's management seems to want to run their airline. For our sake, lets hope they don't figure out how to pay themselves a life's earnings for doing nothing more than running away from the mess they created.
