The man who keeps American in the air
 

In the US Gerard Arpey is hailed as the saviour of the world's largest carrier, American Airlines, which narrowly escaped bankruptcy after 9/11. In Britain, Arpey is the man that British Airways must do business with if it wants to forge an alliance that can compete effectively in the cut-throat world of the international airline industry.

Oh, and I thought it's AAFrequentFlyer who keeps the AA in the air :)

Faina, I thought the same thing, too. :D

AAFF, congrats on your million mile mark, btw.

This is scary--we are all thinking the same thing!! :o

Yeah - saw this on FT. Hmmm... MRTC on a west coast-based LCC? Oh my, I bet a certain ramp-crew-accident-prone carrier based in my home town is having a collective gastrointestinal event at the prospect.
