• A giant airline to be created
  Ministry of Justice of the United States of America gave a green light for a fusion of two powerful airlines, United and Continental Airlines, in one giant and biggest in the world airline.
  
  It was possible after reaching an agreement between two mentioned airlines and their competitor, Southwest, in case of starts and landings. Experts say that the last problems were solved so the fusion can be done.
  
  European Commission also did not have any problems with a connection of the airlines. European airlines say that the American fusion is not a threat for them. New giant will complement an offer of flights between Europe and USA.
  
  The fusion of United and Continental Airlines will create a giant, with 144 millions of passengers yearly, to 370 airports in 59 countries. It will be done until the end of this year.
