In the internal memo, they really didn't say no merger. They had examples if fake news and said the rumor about the August 15th announcement was not true. Nothing more, nothing less.

Actually, I think the merger will happen.... Eventually.
The harder they push back on the idea of this merger, the more likely it becomes.
In the past, with every other merger rumor, management hasn't cared. Zero interest from management. Now, because of a possible United merger rumor, we get emailed at 7pm on a Sunday night from a VP level employee? If this rumor didn't have a level of truth to it, they just would let the rumor fester and eventually burn itself out.
That said, the merger is likely in some level of discussion, likely there are details to be worked out, and the deal may still fall through.

Looking at today's latest redacted SEC filing by UAL there is this very clear indication that a BIG deal is happening:
On ********* United Continental Holdings, Inc. *************** a ********* ********* with *************************** for the ************* of *********** and *************** that. This ********* with ********************* and ****************** has *********** of ******* or ******* if ********* or **********.
UAL is buying JetBlue, Frontier and Spirit. All the airplanes will be painted in the new UAL livery of green with white and orange stripes.
That is what the redacted information says. There is only one possibility.

It does sound like a perfect plane for Jb-especially with 40 min turns in FLL.
