Breaking: Marriott Swoops in to Buy Hawaiian Airlines, Miles to Be Transferred to Marriott 1:1
Regulatory Approval Likely
Department of Transportation and Department of Justice staffers familiar with the matter are currently unable to officially comment.
One Department of Transportation summer intern, leaving the office on her final day before her school resumes, commented to reporters, “This is such a bonkers acquisition that it probably will be approved in a heartbeat.”
Hertz Global Holdings (NASDAQ: HTZ) mounted a bid of its own that quickly fizzled. The Hawaiian Airlines team that had flown to Hertz’s Estero, Florida headquarters to review the proposal later found that their Hertz-supplied rental cars had been marked as non-returned, reported to local authorities as suspected theft with warrants put out for their arrest. A Hertz representative who refused to provide his name and title would not comment beyond “They shoulda done the deal.”
Author’s note: if you read this far then you have enough interest in the subject to realize this is a fictional parody post. Your (and my) new Hawaiian miles are safe…or are they?
