Default hotel

The hotel in YUL is single occupancy of course. It is the Marriot Residence Inn. Very nice hotel. I think the Marriot website has some pics.

Conspiracy Theory Time:

Anyone started up the RAH rumor over that way? It wouldn't be the first time RAH "bought" a carrier set to fly Embraers for a mainline carrier...

For RAH to buy, NW must be willing to sell.

All you guys that think this is another Mid Atlantic are wrong. The circumstances are not the same.

Also, since many IDE guys are now at Compass... we wouldn't want you (RAH) anyway, just like we didn't want MESA in 03.

Huh? So the ex-ACA contingent is turning this into ACA #2?

You think NWA wont spin you off and sell if the price is right?

I think spinning us off via IPO is different that selling us to RAH.

Also, while the airline has alot of ACA/IDE in it's blood, those days are long gone, in that everyone realizes this airline is to benefit NW. I think everyone realizes NW pulls the strings, but I also think everyone realizes the overall culture at the airline is a carry over from the ACA/IDE days.

Who says NW wouldn't sell you? And how are the circumstances different? And what say would line pilots have in said buyout anyways?

I'm just playing Devil's Advocate...I don't really want to see Compass get bought by RAH at all...period. BUT...if it happened, I'm just wondering how you guys would prevent it.

P.S. - ACA used to sign my paycheck too.

More importantly: WHY ARE WE NOT IN CASS YET?!?!? If one more person tells me 'Next Friday' I just might lose it.

In a NY minute. NWA created Compass as a place holder and will spin it off when the price is right.
