Wouldn't it be funny if the west sues, gets everything screwed up, and the merger gets canceled. Then they go back to the old stalemate with the east and usapa and its business as usual forever.
No chance bud.. What this latest AOL tactic does is effectively alienates the west boys from the perceived harmony expected by the UCC via the now ratified MOU. I would bet my bacon that a contingency plan is baked into this merger process. Remember the Co. is not required to surrender the US Airways certificate. The contractual language in the MOU is murky enough to allow the Co. wiggle room in case this sort of thing occurs. Most annalists are already predicting a substantially reduced PHX hub.
I for one am glad that this fiasco is fast approaching maturity. Wish I could say the same about Cacti....;-) When the gavel drops, the nic will finally be put to rest..
I have spoken to several AA pilots, and THEY are not happy with the nic...
