Continental Airlines Suffers Damage, Disruption from Typhoon
ENGAGEMENT Continental Airlines Suffers Damage, Disruption from Typhoon Super Typhoon Paka, as the storm came to be called, was a 12-hour session of destruction for the island of Guam. Stirring up winds in excess of 200 miles per hour, the tropical cyclone tossed buildings, planes and ships across the island like discarded toys. Among these was the headquarters of Continental Micronesia, a subsidiary of Continental Airlines. The main offices, the marketing buildings and the planes were damaged by the powerful typhoon. DESCRIPTION Continental Micronesia maintained its home base on Guam, and the storm caused direct damage to the facilities there, which led to a severe and complicated disruption in the scheduling of flights into and out of Guam, and to and from neighboring islands and other countries being serviced by Continental. In addition to affecting these flights, Continental’s fleet of undamaged airplanes was overused to accommodate the out-of-commission crafts, carrying passengers loads far beyond budgeted capacities and creating excessive wear on those planes. I S S U E S Continental and its insurance carrier had major Was Continental’s loss affected by a widely varying differences of opinion regarding the cause and extent currency exchange rate? of its business income loss.

Open Honors Thesis Lap Chi Adriano Chao.Pdf
THE PENNSYLVANIA STATE UNIVERSITY SCHREYER HONORS COLLEGE DEPARTMENT OF SUPPLY CHAIN AND INFORMATION SYSTEMS AIRLINE MERGER WAVES IN THE UNITED STATES IS A MERGER BETWEEN AMERICAN AIRLINES AND US AIRWAYS POSSIBLE? LAP CHI ADRIANO CHAO Spring 2011 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for baccalaureate degrees in Management and Economics with honors in Supply Chain and Information Systems Reviewed and approved* by the following: Robert Novack Associate Professor of Supply Chain and Information Systems Thesis Supervisor John Spychalski Professor Emeritus of Supply Chain and Information Systems Honors Adviser * Signatures are on file in the Schreyer Honors College. i ABSTRACT Commercial airlines are an important part of the transportation industry in the United States. A better understanding of the reasons for a series of airline merger waves in the United States can help airline professionals realize the criteria and requirements of a merger. This study examined three recent U.S. airline mergers (i.e., Delta-Northwest, United-Continental and Southwest-AirTran) and deduced eight major dimensions of merger motivations, including network synergies, antitrust immunity, fleet commonality, alliance coordination, market positioning, financial benefits and shareholders’ approval, union support and organizational learning. The feasibility of a hypothetical merger between American Airlines and US Airways was determined using the eight dimensions derived. Results suggested that the merger was unlikely to increase the competitiveness

The Plan allows you to decide how much to contribute through payroll deductions on a pre-tax, Roth 401(k), and/or post-tax basis for federal income taxes (and, if applicable, state taxes, too).

You decide how to invest your contributions and, if applicable, United’s contributions made to your Plan account. Income taxes on your pre-tax contributions, employer contributions, and any investment growth in your Plan account are deferred until you withdraw money from the Plan. The value of your account will depend on the amount of contributions you have made, the contributions from United, and how your investments have performed. This Summary Plan Description (“SPD”), which includes an Addendum for your employee group, reflects the Plan features as of January 1, 2021. This document is only a summary of the Plan. In the event of any conflict between this SPD and the terms of the Plan, the Plan document will govern.
