How can a huge company just close their doors in one day!?!

That would suck to show up at the airport with your luggage and and find out the entire airline went out of business overnight

That's messed up on so many levels as far as what they did to the passengers. Imagine if you're flying to an interview, or a wedding, or a death. You're now SOL. They didn't even get a chance to look for alternatives. What about their money?

They're basically saying that customers should call their credit card companies and dispute it. Crazy..

The friendly skies! They should do what Southwest does and just not maintain the planes; keeps costs down. :lol2:

Northwest Airlines and Delta Airlines are planning to merge.

Their goal is to be able to cancel more flights than American Airlines.

That's funny. There are talks of continental / united merger. Cant wait for virgin american to continue to expand to more destinations. Branson's team is gonna crush the competition and furthermore their employees actually enjoy working for the company.
