[edit] Executive merge

I sugested the merge, because, quite frankly, almost all the information on the Executive Airlines article is already in this article. The only information not on this page is the infobox. Is that really enough to keep the Executive page? American Eagle Airlines and Executive Airlines both make up the American Eagle system, so I really don't see a reason to keep them separate.

Oppose. American Eagle and Executive are still separate airlines, even though they are both part of AMR. I feel that they should maintain separate articles, though the part on Executive should be limited to what is relevant to that company. -- Hawaiian717 15:05, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

Hey there.

For simplicity it would be nice to merge these together however......being to different airlines with seperate operating certificates... I do not think it would be appropriate.

Also from what I recall AMR gains distinct tax advantages by maintaining this as a Puerto Rican company.... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 63.215.26.148 (talk) 02:57, 13 September 2007 (UTC)

To correct American Eagle Airlines shoul really be titled as American Eagle Holdings Corporation and have American Eagle and Executive Airlines listed as subsidiaries under American Eagle Holdings Corporation. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 63.215.26.148 (talk) 22:19, 1 October 2007 (UTC)

^^Agreed. ArmoredPersonel 19:30, 20 October 2007 (UTC)

Oppose Keep American airlines (major) and american eagle seprate. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Daven200520 (talk • contribs) 04:14, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

Support. I think that there should be an Executive section on the AE page. Then just demolish the Executive page. If it's the same info, there is no reason to keep them both. Basketball110 17:15, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

oPPOSE/rEJECT. American Eagles Holding company is just a shell, just like AMR Corporation, UAL Corporation, and US Airways Group. They aren't in the business or operating aircraft; they exist for the mere purpose of owning a bunch of diverse holdings, of which the primary subsidiary is an airline!--Inetpup (talk) 16:28, 24 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] AMR Spinoff or Sell

I see much reason to tell about the reported spinoff or selling of American Eagle by AMR. I'm not quite sure where to get the citation for that. Any ideas? Basketball110 17:13, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

• How about:
  • this one [1]?
  • or this one [2]? --Inetpup (talk) 23:30, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

I edit a St. Maarten newsletter with 117,000 readers, many of whom use American Eagle flights (Executive Airlines) from SJU to St. Maarten. Merging data on both AMR subsidiaries will cause monumental confusion and we think merging is a bad idea.
