#1 The returning of leased jets is just a bone for public consumption. What is needed is to get rid of dinosaur management and the interlocking boards of directors and make the tough decisioins that will be needed to save the patient.

#3 Unless your firm does a virtual boatload of business flying, as in daily, Columbus, OH based NETJETS is the probably the least cost method of getting there and returning via air. They don't advertise and are very discreet. Limo and advance team service team service is also available.

Hey, dingleberry.....Northwest flies a bunch of times every day to Washington/Baltimore out of Wayne County Municipal.....depending on what date you choose, it could be as low as $197 round trip. Sure, it's coach, but maybe you could pick up some tips about how to run a company while in bankruptcy from the inflight magazine just in case Congress tells you to go stuff it.

*Yeah, I know, they'll roll over for them, but I can dream....*

Left to me he'd be traveling in a Toyota Tacoma made near Evansville Indiana, unless of course he and the UAW gets thier kak together.
