JetBlue Eyes Virgin America, Deal Possible

FBNs Charlie Gasparino reports bankers tell him a sale of the airline is likely to happen early next week.

Richard Branson's Virgin America (NASDAQ:VA) is for sale and there are plenty of interested suitors, according to reports. However the list may be narrowing down to two key players, JetBlue (NASDAQ:JBLU) and Alaska Air (NYSE:ALK), and a deal could be imminent.
