You guys need to change that "welcome aboard" video and stick someone else who doesn't look and sound like an overgrown retard to greet your passengers.

I wouldn't be surprised to see a UAL-CAL merger at the end of this mess. Maybe even throw in some sort of deal with a European carrier (Lufthansa perhaps).

Riddler, you know that's the plan. This pretty much confirms it.
