I'm glad for them. Before U.S. Airways buys new jets they need to make the two operations ONE with a standard contract. I don't understand the US Air management team. Parker wasted precious time and resources trying to acquire Delta whereas he should have been getting his house in order.
There is unrest in the LCC camp and seperate pay scales, but he has money to buy another airline and new planes. He hasn't learned rule one and that's take care of the PEOPLE. Then again, he is management. I guess he held off buying the wide bodies because he'd get them in the merger. Now, the wide bodies are years away unless he gets them used AND he's trying to block Delta from going to China, but he doesn't have a legal leg to stand on. Good luck LCC guys.

BTW, how is that contract coming along?
