United Airlines and Continental Airlines in the US have been in talks for a possible alliance.

United has to make a decision soon whether to merge with US Airways, which has also been in discussions.

Continental Airlines, which called off merger talks with United in late April, is also in advanced alliance talks with American Airlines AMR Corp and British Airways.

The wave of talks has come after Delta Air Lines and Northwest Airlines Corp said in April they planned to merge and become the world's largest airline, seeking to counter skyrocketing fuel prices, a weak economy and growing competition from European carriers.

United Airlines and Continental now in talks

UNITED SHOULD JUST STAY A STAND ALONE COMPANY. THEY SHOULD GET RID OF THEIR LOW LIFE CEO GLEN TILTON AND IT BOARD. THEY ALL BRING DOWN THE COMPANY WITH THERE HIGH SALARIES AND BOUNS AND THEY TREAT THEIR EMPLOYEES LIKE GARBAGE. DO AWAY WITH MR. TILTON IF HE SHOULD BE CALLED MR, I THINK HE SHOULD BE CALLED MISS TILTON
