I think he may be referring to a recent article in the Scotsman. Rick Green (CEO) was interviewed and publicly stated that Globespan were looking to merge, although they were "not for sale" but any airline has a "price".

I can't see the Thomas Cook Group group being interested but Zoom might be. They'd get 3 X 767-300's and the crews that accompany them to absorb into their current operation as well as the 737 fleet and holiday side of the business. It would suit Zoom's plans well to expand their long haul routes as well as some solid bucket and spade work to keep the cash flow ticking over while the long haul side of things expand.

Interesting times ahead for Globespan me thinks. Hopefully they'll recover after a "annus horriblus" last year.
