Translation: US international flying is going to consist of codeshares with QATAR or Emirates.

Dude, what are you talking about?? All that happened was a meeting between the airlines and the president and a headline created by NBC hahaha You seem to be an easily manipulated person... you do know the media is a tightly controlled monopoly owned by 6 corporations that decided what people see and hear everyday right?!!! This is their job, to create headlines and manipulate peoples thoughts, NBC is the king of that.. you should know that by now. This was just an oval office meeting with tons of media spin to create headlines.

The only people who know what was said in that meeting were the few people attending, and they’re not talking.

More anonymous source reporting, worthy of supermarket tabloids they have become.

To be sure, if the president had taken sides against the Arabs, MSNBC would of accused him of racism and Islamaphobia.

Tell you what, when Sean Hannity reports on the story I'll add it here. But until that happens, there are limited sources on the story.

However, from initial reports it does not appear that Trump is going to step in and help US airlines in their fight against the unfair subsidies from the ME3.

You are more than welcome to distrust the reporting from NBC, but until Trump steps in, he hasn't. And in fairness, something I care deeply about, Obama didn't help us in this battle either.

I will continue to follow the story and post.

Having played golf with a senator that was at the first meeting, he says that Trump is going to side with airlines that are buying American Made airplanes.

At that first meeting, each of the CEO were asked about their aircraft orders and were asked specifically if they'd change their orders to American Made product. Each of them said no.

That essentially ended the meeting.

Also, look at how the DOT chairwoman's family made their fortune.

The 3 legacy carries got caught playing checkers at a chess match.

And when he does I'll be updating my apps because the headline will be:

" Jetblue is unAmerican, doesn't buy American airplanes, and their CEO has a funny accent"
