Great time to buy IMHO.  They'll do just fine with or without US
Anyone else going in?
2.95 per share right now.

Buy on dips? You don't always get bargains that way.

With your finger on the pulse of airlines the way it is, I would seriously consider your opinion as advice. But remember that AMR <> AA, and also that post bankruptcy the old stock may be worthless. Several months back this stock was trading sub $1 per share, and not because anyone thought AA would stop being an airline. It only gained value because of the announcement that AMR stockholders would get a whopping share in the new (merged) company.

If this gets blocked will it make AA miles more or less valuable?

If the merger goes through then PHL-TLV will be kaput IMHO.

The route, which is sad. It's a great flight IMO.

He said on BA, perhaps he means US PHL-LHR and BA LHR-TLV, which would work if US was on OW (or a BA partner).

It's already back to -44%, anyone who bought at the bottom could already sell now and take a 10%+ profit.

Does T8 have TSA pre? Can you use the AA lounge with amex platinum when flying US?

Is there any updated news on the merger?  I am sitting on 73k US Airways miles in the hope of combining them with my AA miles.

Shkoyach! I guess that settles it. You should probably let AA and US know that they don't even have a shot ::)
