UA purchased by AA!!!
 
CNBC is reporting this deal. UA will cease to exist in 6 months. UA mileage members will get 1/2 of their total points as AA points, with the rest disaapearing. The deal was signed this morning, so it's too late to do anything with the miles at this point.<BR>At least UA folks will not loose everything!

You've got to be kidding. I am most displeased.

I hate April Fools Day! May your miles be sucked into cyberspace never to be seen again!<BR><BR>

Damn...you really had me going...<BR>That was a good one. I saw a awful lot of my miles being lost<BR><BR>I should have realized that AA can't afford to by UA
