AA to replace domestic fleet

[PhatSappy]

But you gotta admit....It should be an interesting negotiation session the week of July 11 with all this wonderful news.


Let's hope so. If we can't make progress, we should sue the NMB for failure to release us. We need and deserve relief after years of painstaking negotiations.

I guess the employees are just gonna have to give more concessions so AA can buy shiny new aircraft!

No shi t, thats what I've been saying for over a year now! Wake up people!

There's an old Navy saying that deals with this kind of statement, something about one's butt, negative pressure, and bilge water.

a few more details

Airbus is offering half - 130 - current 320s and half 320neos....

Boeing is offering 738s and 9ERs.
.
Airbus has assembled $6M in financing.
.
Boeing is working hard per the article to counter perception at least - maybe reality - vs. the neo.
.

I still doubt that Boeing can come up with the financing to compete with Airbus.

You do know sarcasm when you see it, don't you?
