I'm seriously worried.
I'm praying that DAL remains a big boy airline..
Have you considered that allowing JV partners to go head to head with the likes of Emirates, Etihad, and now NAI may be the wave of the future and eventually AMR and UAL wIll follow with the same strategy? Personally I'd rather be with a financially stable domestic focused carrier than a bankrupt international carrier. But to each his own. Beware of career decisions based on a 2016 snapshot.
