Filing Ch 11 Rumor

Rumor is that Ch 11 is to be filed today. From an inside person, no further details.

Good news since that means they're not liquidating their assets (yet).

When you file Ch. 11, you need assets. FLYI doesn't have any. From what I have heard, they may go straight to Ch. 7 and try and liquidate whatever they can.

Good point. It looks like that's the way it might go.

Is this a rumor mill or what? I don't know about you guys, but I'm headed out to Dulles to get me some souvenirs!

If only the people making posts like these (and the media) realised how far off base they are.


Cheers.

Hopefully they are off base, and of course the same rumor went around both Monday and yesterday.

Oh, you know, my post above wasn't as clear as I should have made it. I am not saying that financial trouble is far off base --- we all know that and will see how it plays out, but the daily speculation is off the mark.


Cheers.

The article didn't say anything new. FLYI is in financial trouble, seeking investors, may file for bankruptcy, stock price is down, high fuel cost, etc etc etc... blah blah blah.

Latest rumor is this one:

No more IND, SWF, SDF, or JFK as of Oct. 30. No more SEA or SFO as of Nov 30. Ops being moved from JFK to LGA with 2 daily A319s as of Nov. 1. Also, starting mid Dec. Flyi will serve SJU with the A319.

Also saw this rumor on a different website:

Dropping SEA, SFO, IND, CLE, SDF, SWF and JFK. We are replacing them with LGA and San Juan, PR.
