Funny thing is, Walmart is one of the few companies making enough money to buy UA. Can you imagine a Wal-Air?

Actually, many of the S&P 500 companies will earn enough in the first quarter alone (and have sufficient free cash flow) to buy UA.

Wal-Mart won't honour your ticket, but you will be allowed to camp out in your 767 in any Wal-mart car park.

For some reason thought this thread might be worth bumping to the top again.

And which FlyerTalker would you nominate to be the Wal-Air greeter?

Sure, why not? XNA would be a perfect place to compete with AA's new LIT service:

With all that's going on with United, I think this is in very bad taste. I am ashamed at all those here who have lowered themselves to comment or make additional jokes.

Duty Free shopping will take on a whole new meaning, just picture the specials on the cart.

Maybe the could add one of their 1 hour photo processing machines in the galley.

Then on a LAX-DEN your photos will be done and ready before landing.
